You may want to see if the spl is oversize.  Sometime ago the size was
pushed up to 38K but the base was not moved to  accommodate the extra
size so there has been the possibility of problems since then.  I work
around it in my own tree by moving CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE down but that
breaks HS devices.  The patches that start with this email
http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2011-September/102518.html set
the size back to 32K.
