These devices have small image size limits, so exclude EFI_LOADER to help avoid exceeding limits.

I understand that with the progress we make on EFI implementation and other parts of U-Boot the U-Boot image size is growing too big for direct loading by the primary boot loader.
The OPENRD boards have abundant memory, e.g. openrd_ultimate_defconfig refers to a board with 512 MB RAM.
So I think completely disabling EFI is not the solution. Instead building an SPL should be enabled for this architecture when the image is becoming too big for direct load.
I am copying in the KIRKWOOD maintainers go get their view.
