I know I said it only the other day but switching from gcc-4.x/5.x to
6.x saves a bunch of space, even on am335x hs.  I guess my request is
that you pick up a gcc-6.x (Debian/unstable, Fedora 25 or I assume
Linaro) compiler for ARM and see converting am335x HS to SPL_DT is
anywhere close to fitting in the constraint.
