I will drop this patch when I send v2.


BTW, I tried building vpac270 ONENAND.
It is already over 1kiB.




$ git describe
v2015.07-307-g2647394
$ make vpac270_ond_256_defconfig
#
# configuration written to .config
#
$ make -s CROSS_COMPILE=arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi-
===================== WARNING ======================
Please convert this board to generic board.
Otherwise it will be removed by the end of 2014.
See doc/README.generic-board for further information
====================================================
$ ls -l spl/u-boot-spl.bin
-rwxrwxr-x 1 masahiro masahiro 2828 Jul 28 00:53 spl/u-boot-spl.bin



It is over 2KB.
