I have done something like this in a SoC config.mk:
<---
# only active in topdir
ifeq ($(subst $(SRCTREE),,$(CURDIR)),)
ALL-y += $(obj)u-boot-SoC-file
$(obj)u-boot-SoC-file: ...
...
endif
--->
Without the check the rule(s) become active in all subdirs.
And of course this is a hack, as it is a Makefile fragment and not only a
config anymore.
But maybe this gives you or someone else a hint for implementing a cleaner
framework for
SoC specific image rules?
