It is under moderation because of too many recipients.
(I think you have already received it because you were listed in CC.)

Please wait until it is approved.

Buildman-test passed, but I am not sure about run-test.

For those boards that define CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE,
CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT etc., we should notice the problem at the
build time.  (and it did not occur.)

I'd like to encourage the board maintainers to do run-test just in case.
(and also to support such CONFIG options for boards with the limited
memory footprint)
