U-Boot does not have any specific  requirements.  Your  configuration
may  be  sub-optimal, but this just effects where the U-Boot ode ends
up in your flash device; worst  case  is  that  it  leaves  you  with
700...800 kB of unused / unusable space.

No need to modify U-Boot. Just configure it correctly.

Best regards,
