Hi Stefano,

They *could* be good reasons, but it depends on the use case. In case of Novena as Marek stated, it boots from filesystem and dropping this feature breaks definetly the board.
My position is that each board maintainer can take the decision what is necessary for the board he maintained. I think this should be done per each board, so just send single patches (not a compund as this one) just for the boards you want to drop ext4 (I guess just sabre and Wandboard). If the board maintainers agree (Fabio and Otavio), patches can be merged.
I agree that we should remove CONFIG_SPL_FS_EXT4 on a case by case basis.
Thanks
