This behaviour is necessary with boards where the binman description requires processing external blobs, since these may be missing.
Enable it by default, so that CI is happy. Warnings indicate that a valid image is not produced, as with the --allow-missing option.
I know I have talked and warned about this before, and now I was actually bitten by it IRL.
Can we _please_ stop doing this by default. I understand why upstream U-Boot's CI system needs this, but it should be possible for that CI system to set an environment variable or pass a make parameter to opt-in to generating these fake blobs.
I've brought this up before as well, and it's not as bad as I feared it would be to add this, so I'll post a patch shortly.
