Well, I guess the point I'd try and make is that it's not how SPL is
done today.  Really following the existing format would be (in the
Makefile):
ifdef CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
ifdef CONFIG_SPL_OMAP3_ID_NAND
COBJS-y += spl_id_nand.o
endif
endif

I can see the point you're making but I'm asking if we need to change
everyone around to your suggested way of building before we can merge
these changes in?  Thanks!
