u-boot-dtb-tegra.bin and u-boot-nodtb-tegra.bin binaries
are generated only if the SPL build is enabled as they have
dependency on SPL build

Should they though? If there's no SPL, surely we still want to generate
the same output filenames, so that consumers of the binaries don't have
to care whether a particular board needs the SPL tacked onto the binary.

In other words, rather than:

u-boot-nodtb-tegra.bin == SPL + U-Boot
u-boot-dtb-tegra.bin == SPL + U-Boot + DTB

... when SPL is disabled, shouldn't we generate:

u-boot-nodtb-tegra.bin == U-Boot
u-boot-dtb-tegra.bin == U-Boot + DTB

That would require modifying the rules that generate those files not to
include the SPL binary in the concatenation, rather than simply not
generating those files at all.

I've run "./MAKEALL -v nvidia" and didn't see any issue.

When the SPL build is disabled, we are already generating u-boot.bin and u-boot-dtb.bin.
Do we really want to generate two more binaries with the same content but with different names ?

You want "./MAKEALL -s tegra", since not all Tegra boards were created
by NVIDIA; quite a few come from other vendors.

Oh, I guess that the way u-boot-tegra-*.bin is a bit different to what I
thought, so indeed if you just disable those, then the desired
U-Boot+DTB files are still created. So, I guess it's fine the way you
have it.

It's a bit annoying that the output filenames are different based on
whether you have SPL or not, but I guess I can make our flasher scripts
cope with that easily enough.

just now gave a try. Total number of boards compiled are 13 and didn't see any issue.
