Subject: [PATCH 5.17 0175/1126] mips: Always permit to build u-boot images

From: Paul Cercueil <paul@...pouillou.net>

commit 34275ac292ae141ebc1296b72f005f71b25998a7 upstream.

The platforms where the kernel should be loaded above 0x8000.0000 do not
support loading u-boot images, that doesn't mean that we shouldn't be
able to generate them.

Additionally, since commit 79876cc1d7b8 ("MIPS: new Kconfig option
ZBOOT_LOAD_ADDRESS"), the $(zload-y) variable was no longer hardcoded,
which made it impossible to use the uzImage.bin target.

Fixes: 79876cc1d7b8 ("MIPS: new Kconfig option ZBOOT_LOAD_ADDRESS")
