Re: [U-Boot] [PATCH v4 2/5] spl: don't mark __u_boot_cmd* as undefined

__u_boot_cmd* symbols are not used in SPL so there is no need to tell the linker that they are undefined. With these symbols marked as undefined linker fails to garbage collect some unused functions and even fails to build the resulting image.

I don't like this because it causes SPL to bloat when the commands aren't also removed from the build. But I assume a number of commands were being pulled in as part of the networking stack?
