I've just quickly build-tested the hack-patch below to have a guess of the SPL
size for mx31pdk with CONFIG_SPL_FRAMEWORK, and I get 3.9 kiB, so way more than
the maximum 2 kiB. Hence, these boards can't unfortunately be made more generic,
but it's not a reason to remove them. The generic SPL must allow such hardware
to be supported by U-Boot.

Forget that. I had just missed its definition in this patch. I saw it thanks to
Philip.

Best regards,
