Hey Simon, Masahiro

May I suggest an alternative solution to this issue.

What if each Kconfigs option could be set as "y" (compile for u-boot only )or 
"s" (compile for u-boot and SPL)
Just as the kernel can set Kconfig to "y" or "m".

With minor modifications to the Makefile, SPL target will compile "obj-s" and 
u-boot  target will compile "obj-s" and "obj-y" 

What do you think ?
