I don't really understand what the purpose of this change is. Indeed,
you're not removing the dedicated imx8 config template file in your
patch series. And even your defconfig calls
board/freescale/common/imx/post-image.sh, which based on:

        elif grep -Eq "^BR2_PACKAGE_FREESCALE_IMX_PLATFORM_IMX8MM=y$" ${BR2_CONFIG}; then
                echo "genimage.cfg.template_imx8"

will use the imx8 config template file for genimage.

So I'm rather confused by what's going on here.
