In case the build system builds a directory with empty Makefile,
one which does not contain any obj-y entries, the build fails to
link due to missing built-in.o .
This happens because of this part of scripts/Makefile.build
81 ifneq ($(strip $(obj-y) $(obj-m) $(obj-) $(subdir-m) $(lib-target)),)
82 builtin-target := $(obj)/built-in.o
83 endif
which does not assign builtin-target in case obj-y is empty. The
built-in target is then not built at all, and built-in.o is not
generated by this part of scripts/Makefile.build
325 ifdef builtin-target
326 quiet_cmd_link_o_target = AR $@
327 # If the list of objects to link is empty, just create an empty built-in.o
...
335 targets += $(builtin-target)
336 endif # builtin-target
This is the correct behavior.
The final link however expects the built-in.o to exist in every directory
included in the build, even in those where the aforementioned code skipped
generation of built-in.o . Make sure the built-in.o does exist for every
directory used in final link simply by doing touch on every built-in.o used
for the link, which will create empty built-in.o in case any built-in.o is
missing.
A possible alternative fix is the always define the builtin-target
and always generate built-in.o .

Use PHASE_ as the symbol to select a particular XPL build. This means
that SPL_TPL_ is no-longer set.
Update the comment in bootstage to refer to this symbol, instead of
SPL_

Complete this rename for all directories outside arch/ board/ drivers/
and include/
Use the new symbol to refer to any 'SPL' build, including TPL and VPL

The new name 'xPL' is intended to indicate a build of any phase which is
not U-Boot proper. Define it for all such phases.
Note that we also define CONFIG_SPL_BUILD for all xPL builds. This
preserves existing behaviour, but future patches will adjust that.

Now that the conversion of all CONFIG options to Kconfig is complete,
these files only contain the xPL_BUILD defines. Add a comment to make
this clear.

Rename this file to indicate that it refers to any non-U-Boot-proper
phase, not just SPL, which is the phase immediately before U-Boot
proper.
