I was going to say that Jerry's solution looks better, as it's more
automatic for the user.

However, the selection of the U-Boot image format is not a Kconfig
"choice" in boot/uboot/Config.in: one can select multiple images. In
this case, how can ATF know which one to use ? Jerry's proposal is to
assume that if BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_FORMAT_DTB_BIN=y, then you want to use
u-boot-dtb.bin, but if there are multiple U-Boot images enabled, it's
indeed difficult to know which one to chose for ATF.

So, I agree with Sergey: probably the easiest is simply some free-form
string option, with a default to u-boot.bin to preserve backward
compatibility.

Best regards,

Thomas
