running "make help" concludes with the claim:

"Execute "make" or "make all" to build all targets marked with [*]"

but i see no make targets marked that way -- i suspect that was just a copy and paste from the kernel Makefile, yes?

Yes.

I think at least

u-boot - Build the bare u-boot

should be marked with *

(although u-boot.bin and some other SoC-specific boot images are generally created.)

to make sure i wasn't misunderstanding something.
