At least I thought from the documentation, then I saw this when building
'riotboard_defconfig' from U-Boot 2016.11:
arm-v7a-linux-gnueabihf-gcc -E -Wp,-MD,board/boundary/
nitrogen6x/.nitrogen6s1g.cfg.cfgtmp.d -nostdinc -isystem /opt/

./tools/mkimage -n board/boundary/nitrogen6x/nitrogen6s1g.cfg.cfgtmp -T
imximage -e 0x17800000 -d u-boot.bin u-boot.imx
Image Type: Freescale IMX Boot Image
Image Ver: 2 (i.MX53/6/7 compatible)

Looks like -n behaves differently when called with '-T imximage'? However it
is quite clear from the first call how to get the appropriate file without C
comments: use the C preprocessor on the input file, this not only removes
those comments, but also resolves includes.
To just create that imximage though, you only have to configure U-Boot
correctly and it will drop out of the usual call to make without calling
mkimage manually.
