Colleagues, you want to have an eye on this because it could silently
unlock the (downstream) secure boot config profile [1] on next update.

This makes me wonder if U-Boot shouldn't carry such profiles as well,
either in form of a generic Kconfig switch or some defconfig variants.
It's a very common pattern to shoot yourself into the foot while trying
to lock down the typical try-out upstream defconfigs for secure boot.
