FEATURES nor DEPENDS are not good candidates for this. They are global
for target/subtarget. So you can not define in same target/subtarget for
one profile to include only zImage and for other to include only uImage.

You can see that does not work if you look how Freescale i.MX23/i.MX28
(mxs) now behaves.
