While I like the idea of this patch, and I *think* that this is what an 
SPL hex should look like for all platforms, I'm not 100% sure that 
globally changing the rule and objcopy flags for u-boot-spl.hex is OK 
for all architectures?

Let's try to apply this at the start of next merge window, then we'll 
hopefully see if this does break any board.
