The global fix might be this:

diff --git a/boot/arm-trusted-firmware/Config.in b/boot/arm-trusted-firmware/Config.in
index 5070849d9b43..a9b9bbcc5a1f 100644

Commit cf176128ec4 ("boot/arm-trusted-firmware: add SSP option")
mentions that not all platform implement the require hook for SSP. So I
think that enabling SSP by default is not the right choice.
