Are you really sure that you want to drop the PCI commands? IIRC then the ALPR 
has some PCI devices and it might be handy to access them from within U-Boot 
(for debugging etc).

Yes, CMD_ELF is not needed for Linux kernel booting.

I just checked and by disabling these features we fit into the 256k again:

#undef CONFIG_CMD_NFS
#undef CONFIG_CMD_REGINFO
#undef CONFIG_CMD_ELF

I'll submit a patch in a sec. Please send your ack if you think this is ok.

Thanks.

Best regards,
Stefan
