U-Boot Signing with Pre-Built FIP repo

For simplified usage, pleaser refer to :doc:`pre-generated-fip` with codename `p201`

Amlogic doesn't provide sources for the firmware and for tools needed
to create the bootloader image, so it is necessary to obtain them from
the git tree published by the board vendor:
$ git clone https://github.com/LibreELEC/amlogic-boot-fip --depth=1
$ cd amlogic-boot-fip
$ mkdir my-output-dir
$ ./build-fip.sh p201 /path/to/u-boot/u-boot.bin my-output-dir
