I've been trying to trim down my nand_spl bootstrap so that it
will be below the 4K limit allowed by the processor.  However
this is proving to be very challenging.  I have noticed that there
is a little over 100 (decimal) bytes that are being unused at the
beginning of the resulting binary (after the HRCW and version
 string).  Would it be possible to move some functions in start.S
(mpc83xx) in front of this (see below) part of the code?

    . = EXC_OFF_SYS_RESET

    .globl    _start

This would allow for more board specific nand_spl boot code.
Would something like this be allowed or am I barking up the
wrong tree?
