[U-Boot] [PATCH] arm: configs: helios4: Change U-Boot offset on SPI Flash

SPI flash support on Helios4 [1] has been merge to u-boot/master on
commit 8cb8c0c6a83bef ("Merge git://git.denx.de/u-boot-marvell")

However, the SPI image build failed after the merge with following
message:

COPY    spl/u-boot-spl.bin
MKIMAGE u-boot-spl.kwb
Error: Image header (incl. SPL image) too big!
header=0x20816 CONFIG_SYS_U_BOOT_OFFS=0x20000!
Increase CONFIG_SYS_U_BOOT_OFFS!
Error: Image header (incl. SPL image) too big!
header=0x20816 CONFIG_SYS_U_BOOT_OFFS=0x20000!
Increase CONFIG_SYS_U_BOOT_OFFS!
Could not create image
Makefile:1162: recipe for target 'u-boot-spl.kwb' failed
make: *** [u-boot-spl.kwb] Error 1

Let's increase the u-boot offset to 0x30000 to accommodate SPL changes
and leave some margin for future changes.

Notes

* After doing git bisect, I found out if the SPI flash support patch
applied after
commit 6f57c34473d37b ("serial: ns16550: fix debug uart putc called
before init")
SPI image build would failed because of the SPL+header size

* To build SPI image:
make mrproper
make helios4_defconfig

sed -i "s/CONFIG_MVEBU_SPL_BOOT_DEVICE_MMC=y/"\
"# CONFIG_MVEBU_SPL_BOOT_DEVICE_MMC is not set/g" .config

sed -i "s/# CONFIG_MVEBU_SPL_BOOT_DEVICE_SPI is not set/"\
"CONFIG_MVEBU_SPL_BOOT_DEVICE_SPI=y/g" .config

sed -i "s/CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC=y/"\
"# CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC is not set/g" .config

sed -i "s/# CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_SPI_FLASH is not set/"\
"CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_SPI_FLASH=y/g" .config

make
