I'd guess none of the functions in the SPL binary are referenced in the
linker script or linker command line, so the linker thinks none of them
are necessary and removes them.

Can you try the following patch:
diff --git a/arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc85xx/u-boot-nand_spl.lds 
b/arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc85xx/u-boot-nand_spl.lds
index 7d9cee9..53d33ee 100644
--- a/arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc85xx/u-boot-nand_spl.lds

+               KEEP(*(.resetvec))
        } = 0xffff
 
        __bss_start = .;

I did a quick compile test, and it seemed to work, as well as stripped
out a few unused functions.

Best,
Peter
