Thanks for pointing that out. To sum it up: If those boards use SPL_SIZE_LIMIT to restrict the size of an SPL-only image, then u-boot-with-spl.bin, of course, can be too large and the build fails. Plus in our previous discussion, we figured out why using BOARD_SIZE_LIMIT also isn't suitable: https://lore.kernel.org/u-boot/aD2EflR9DRYG-MY5@antares/ So from here I really don't see any better way than introducing yet another CONFIG_*SIZE_LIMIT option. But maybe we can however simplify and deduplicate some of the code.
