It's unusual to ship binary firmware in U-Boot repository. Please place
the firmware somewhere else, and give a clear instruction in the
board/architecture documentation explaining how to obtain/build it.

Please make use of existing binman[1] facibilities to avoid the extra
Kconfig and Makefile pieces. binman_sym() could be used for obtaining
both size and offset of a binman entry.

However, you don't verify it, but only print some of the information.
The comment seems misleading and extra.
