If the SPL extends beyond CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE, then it will likely corrupt the main U-Boot binary during execution, causing the main U-Boot binary to fail. Check for this situation during the build to avoid extremely annoying and hard-to-find bugs. Note that checking the size of u-boot-spl.bin is not enough, since BSS size doesn't affect the size of u-boot-spl.bin.

Can't you do this in the linker script like we do for other SPL size constraints? Or am I just mis-reading how this is unique and that link-time check can't be used? Thanks!
