User may use both. For first time, user can build everything in one go with -i.
After that, if they only need to update Linux images, they can use -i to only
build kernel itb.
I have tested using binman without -i, it will build all itb defined in dts.
bash-4.1$ ./tools/binman/binman build -u -d u-boot.dtb -O .
binman: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'Image'
