Tom, what's the status on this? I still can't build an SPL for socfpga 
gen5 boot from FPGA because I can't change SPL_TEXT_BASE.

Marek, if getting CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE into 2019.01 won't work, can we 
have a separate (k)config option for socfpga only? That might be useful 
anyway as when booting from fpga, there is no 64 KByte size limit and 
the "magic value into magic register to unlock support for issuing warm 
reset" must not be written as the SPL is not in SRAM. But that might 
have its separate config option, too...

Anyway, I just need input to know in which direction I should continue. 
I'm waiting to get all our versions of SPL and U-Boot running from 
mainline (with only board configs added for our private boards).

Thanks,
Simon
