>Can you give the exact bytes saved in each case, with your specific compiler? I ask since I'm surprised it's more than a function being dropped by the linker in this case. diff'ing the u-boot-spl.map files would also say what is dropped and I'd be interested in that. (And >yes, I'm asking for more details to justify adding a Kconfig option here).

Compiler : arm-linu-gnueabihif-gcc, version: 6.2-2016.11)
1) default dra7xx_evm_defconfig and use cli_simple_runcommand - MLO size is 129998
2) default dra7xx_evm_defconfig and dropping CLI and use do_reset - MLO size is 126130, saving is ~4K (129998-126130 = 3878 bytes).
3) default dra7xx_evm_defconfig and dropping CLI and dropping do_reset - MLO size is 125298, saving is ~5K (129998-125298 = 4708 bytes).
