This is a regression with 2026.04. 2026.04-rc never booted on this device, and
before commit f9ffeec4bdcf1da655a0ffea482062adde78fee8 none of the verdin
am62[p] variants were booting for multiple bugs that were present in the
release.

2026.01 is booting fine on this device, with plain vanilla U-Boot.
