What about using just the first half:

	Maximum size of the U-Boot image. When defined, the build system
	checks that the actual size does not exceed it.
	[plus/minus treatment of the value zero]

And dropping the remainder "This does not include ..."?

I think the hint on the separate options would be unnecessary, if they
are placed placed just below.
