This seems a bit superfluous, as you don't really need to differentiate
between SPL and non-SPL, right?

Did you take a look at my comment about this in v1 of this patch? Here
again:

AFAIK, IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_X530_ECC) would be a solution here. There is
no need for a new SPL Kconfig option this way. Please give it a try.

Thanks,
Stefan
