Actually, I wonder why so many ARM .lds files need to exist at all,
when arch/arm/cpu/u-boot[-spl].lds could be used most of the time. I
suspect that the main reason for custom .lds files is ad hoc MEMORY
declarations, which could easily be commonalized through adequate
preprocessing.

Amicalement,
