On Icicle, Nezha & VisionFive 2:
Tested-by: Conor Dooley <conor.dooley@...rochip.com>

I was really curious why my CI didn't catch this, but I think boot
on Icicle wasn't broken as the toolchains pre-date Zbb and therefore it
isn't even compiled in.
And the VisionFive 2 doesn't care as it has Zbb.

Thanks for the fixes :)
Conor.
