In situations like an autobuilder we are likely to not have bl31.bin present and thus would fail to build and propagate the error upwards. Instead, print a big warning to stderr so that human will see that something is wrong but complete the build.

On x86 we use BUILD_ROM to enable building of something that requires binary blobs. Maybe we should have a standard build flag which tells the build to use binary blobs (or perhaps to not use them?).
That's not 100% true on how it's used on x86 today, we have to set BUILD_ROM to get a binary we can use with qemu (which is why it's set in .travis.yml) but I imagine could be controlled differently, easily enough. We also have a similar problem on TI HS devices in that if the HS kit is not installed we still generate binaries but they are non-functional on the hardware. In that case we key off of the generation script existing at all.
So yes, we should generalize this a bit, but I also really don't want to push the sunxi PR without something that means that autobuilders/etc will continue to funciton.
Well let me know what you prefer and I can send a patch to update x86.
