[U-Boot] [PATCH 0/3] sunxi: Fix boot of Cubietruk and al.

Hi,

Most featureful boards, such as the Cubietruck, have been broken since
the release 2017.09.

This is due to a size increase of the binary that will trip us across
the size we've been using in the u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin file.

We would have two ways to work around it. The first one would be to
just increase the offset of the environment. However, since it would
break all the environments of our users and possibly the custom
partition scheme that they would have created, it doesn't really seem
like a smart move.

Another one would be to start trimming down a bit our enabled options
in order to reduce the size and to gain some extra space for users
customisations. I've taken care some of the low hanging fruits, and we
should probably take another go at it in the future (and add a size
check in the image build somehow?)
