Mismatches with what? Why can't we just use the Kconfig supplied value throughout?
Mismatches with the value defined here in sunxi-common.h, sunxi-common.h lists all other spl memory addresses right in this block, making it possible to quickly see what goes there. If someone ever decides to tweak the layout, then they will likely forget the single value which is set in the defconfig-s, but they will (presumably) update the copy in sunxi-common.h, as that is sitting there right next to the others.
If this happens then the compiler will give a warning (for each C-file) that CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R_ADDR is being redefined.
So functionality wise this does nothing, leaving it out will result in an identical build. It is just there to help us poor humans to not forger to update the value in the defconfig files if we ever decide to tweak the SPL memory layout.
