That's it. when asked to build the u-boot.sb build target (make 
u-boot.sb) U-Boot automatically call the elftosb tool to finalize the Safe
Boot build process. So this tool should already be accessible through 
the system PATH. I mean U-Boot assumes this tool to be installed on
the host environment. The link is done in patch by changing the
UBOOT_MAKE_TARGET.
