Dear coreboot folks,
with a coreboot image built from commit 11f1d31d (buildgcc: Deal with gmp on 32bit Cygwin on 64bit host) [1] for the ASRock E350M1 removing `fallback/payload` leaves an empty file behind and trying to add a file with the same name again fails, as cbfstool says it’s already present.

If you notice, the type field changed from payload to null.

So it's "deteled" as the type changed. But the name wasn't changed to match the '(empty)' heuristic.
The fix below it will do as you want (though remove doesn't really clear contents...).

Hope that helps.
