Overall I agree and fully support the first 7 patches in this series.

But for this last one I wanted to open a discussion.

On one hand I understand the desire to make components as generic as possible 
and reduce the number of machine-specific components to a bare minimum.

But on another hand, marking the resulting package as machine-specific when it 
has a short list of compatible machines is a standard practice. The reason is 
that the list of compatible machines controls only compile time filtering, but 
doesn't have any effect on run time. And marking packages as machine specific 
helps with that. That closes the loophole of installing incompatible packages.

For example, first recipe below specifies that Cadence MHDP firmware is 
compatible with 3 J7 platforms only (or their SoC families, to be exact).
But w/o marking resulting binary package as machine-specific (therefore 
producing separate packages for those platforms), there will be a single 
generic Aarch64 package made. And there's no protection from installing 
this generic package on non-compatible platforms, like J7200 or AM65xx, 
either manullay or by pulling it into a rootfs for those incompatible 
platforms.

And you normally want to prevent this for regular components. But I guess 
this doesn't fully apply to FW images that are loaded by corresponding 
drivers anyway. Moreover, there's no compilation involved, just packaging 
the binary blob.

In that case, should we also remove COMPATIBLE_MACHINE from these firmware 
recipes?
