Could you add a 'default BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_FORM_BIN' here, so that even
though u-boot.bin is no longer the first choice (and therefore the
default one), it remains the one selected by default?

> +config BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_FORMAT_AIS

Could you add a help text that mentions which platforms use this
format? For newcomers, it's not necessarily easy to find which image
format they should use, especially amongst the numerous SoC-specific
formats.

Otherwise, looks good, thanks!
