If I follow you right, to my question of "How would a user make use of
'ROM loads next loader via USB' program?" your answer is "Have it load
a normal U-Boot that's minimally configured".  That link is TI saying
"we have split things up such that ROM loads U-Boot-Min (a minimally
configured U-Boot) which can then load a full U-Boot".  You NAK'd the
idea then.  Have you changed your mind?  If so, where are we going to
draw the demarcation between "OK for SPL" and "Must use a full U-Boot"
?
