glob() is the wrong function anyway. glob() expands patterns to existing
files. You want to do pattern matching only not looking into the VFS.
fnmatch() is the right function here.

Besides, glob() uses fnmatch(), so by using glob() you would add even
more code.

You can't do much in barebox without globalvar support which already
uses fnmatch(), so it's likely enabled anyway.

Use IS_ENABLED(). The linker will discard unused functions for you. We
use this all over the place.
