I tested these changes on several compilers and binutils.  4.3.3, 4.6.3,
4.7.2, 4.8.2 and 4.9.2 gcc with binutils 2.19, 2.21-24 in both THUMB and
ARM on the Vybrid.  It seem we must have an image <= 224kB which is the
IRAM bank0 size - 0x8000 of u-boot base; u-boot since v2014.04 will not
boot for me as the QSPI seemed to take it over this boundary.

The attached patches are meant to be attached as they aren't meant to be
taken by patchworks, etc but just to show the small changes I made to
minimize the image to less than 224kB.

I applied Stefan's memcpy/thumb patch, reverted c6150aaf and applied
'fs/ext4/ext4fs.c, fs/fs.c fs/fat/fat_write.c: Adjust 64bit math
methods' by Tom Rini <tr...@ti.com> (it has a little whitespace fat in
it).  All of the images booted on a Vybrid Tower (Rev H) from an SD
card.  Only issue is that I think the 'AFLAGS_NOWARN' can be removed as
per below...

I don't think we need the '$(AFLAGS_NOWARN)' as you fixed that?  I
removed it during my tests and didn't see anything.  Especially all
builds produced output.  I guess this is copy/paste from a Linux
Makefile as I don't even see where it is set in U-Boot.
