They work with the patches to u-boot which assumes
that the name look like they used to.
If the new naming remains, who is going to fix the u-boot patches?

AGAIN: How can you RETROACTIVELY set _SUFFIX/_PREFIX
if you forgot to set _SUFFIX/_PREFIX and thus
overwrote another project.

It is high maintenance and error prone to do it this way.

Which again means fixing u-boot patches.
Who is going to do that
You suggested previously that the person breaking the build
needs to fix it.
Does that still apply?
