Do we prefer to use SPL + u-boot (raw or on a partition) or raw bootable u-boot (all in one: u-boot + SPL)?
Either solutions are fine. I personally prefer the all-in-one as it's easier to maintain.
The 2 solutions need to update u-boot packages and JeOS images too.
Is there anyone else who prefer one or the other solution?
I think it may be better to use SPL + u-boot in 2 files so that we do not hit a size limit for 1st external loader (SPL). (Not sure what is the limit for sunxi, but for OMAP3, it is very limited as it uses a small SRAM for SPL).
Let's take the official all-in-one binary, as that abstracts us from future breakages. It should have no impact on the SPL size, as the only difference is in what format and at what offset the non-SPL part is placed.
