This change seems like a band-aid as I really don't see a reason to touch the
existing code just because you've put the JSON generation in that place
initially.
I would probably try to make that JSON file Make target, something like:
$(JJSON_FILENAME): whatever-prerequisites-that-json-needs
json-generator.py > $$@
Then add this target as prerequisite to another Make target, ideally one which
should produce some output, not ignoring the errors. If thats not possible I
would probably change the target/prerequisites dependency somehow etc.

Another band-aid, but I understand, that fixing that properly would be a huge
task. I think, that the .IGNORE is there to workaround the abused image
generation code for stuff like DTBs etc. and probably few more corner cases
I'm not aware about and that commit a1b725bba534 ("build: ignore errors on
copying firmware binaries from $(KDIR) to $(BIN_DIR)") is missing commit
description so who knows :)

It doesn't hurt (and is probably necessary), but I was providing you with the
error which was related to the previous code/JSON parsing which you're saying
should be fixed now:
json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Extra data: line 35 column 2 (char 823)
