Not all genimage configurations require creating a vfat partition.

For example, we do have a few such configurations in Buildroot:

    $ grep -c vfat $(find board/ -name '*genimage*') |grep -E ':0$' |wc -l
    27

    $ cat board/amarula/vyasa/genimage.cfg
    image sdcard.img {
        hdimage {
        }

        partition u-boot-tpl-spl-dtb {
            in-partition-table = "no"
            image = "u-boot-tpl-spl-dtb.img"
            offset = 32K
        }

        partition u-boot-dtb {
            in-partition-table = "no"
            image = "u-boot-dtb.img"
            offset = 8M
            size = 30M # falcon mode: args @ 16M args, uImage @ 17M
        }

        partition rootfs {
            partition-type = 0x83
            image = "rootfs.ext4"
        }
    }

It is your respnsibility to enable whatever filesystem image generators
you need for your system.
