Hello,

The recent commit 135dfe3f2620 ("ti-bsp: Make ti-6_18 the default BSP") making
the ti-6_18 the default BSP appears to have broken our builds, which is what
this patch was trying to prevent.

With ti-6_18 now default, all J784s4 based machines are forced into initramfs
build through TI_CORE_INITRAMFS_KERNEL_MODULES in j784s4.inc, regardless of
whether they actually need these EVM specific modules.

Our Toradex Aquila AM69/TDA4 SoM doesn't use UFS storage and doens't need
initrafs. Our build now fail because the SoC include forces image levl
integration decisions.

Can this patch be considered, or am I missing something about how to handle this
scenario?

Thanks,
Vitor Soares
