Sorry, the `` above threw me off, I thought for a minute that this was
starting a new section. Ignore that comment.

I would either expect that the names (TF-A, OP-TEE, U-Boot) to be used
everywhere or BL31, BL32, BL33 to be used everywhere, not a mix of both.

However, I see now that these are existing variable names in binman.
So obviously can't change them.

I was thinking of
