+ * RAM-loaded SPL configuration for Maskrom boot development.
+ *
+ * When CONFIG_SPL_RAM is enabled, SPL is loaded directly into DRAM via
+ * Rockchip's USB download mode (rkdeveloptool/upgrade_tool). This creates
+ * special images for that workflow:
+ *
+ * u-boot-rockchip-ram.bin - Plain binary layout:
+ *   [0x00000 - 0x1ffff] SPL padded to 128KB (SPL_RAM_PAD_SIZE)
+ *   [0x20000 - ...]     u-boot.itb (FIT with U-Boot + ATF + DTB)
+ *
+ * u-boot-rockchip-ram-ldr.bin - LDR format bundle:
+ *   Rockchip native loader format compatible with rkdeveloptool/upgrade_tool.
+ *   - 471 entry: TPL for DRAM initialization (runs in SRAM)
+ *   - 472 entry: SPL + FIT concatenated (runs from DRAM)
+ *
+ * USB download workflow with plain binary:
+ *   1. rkdeveloptool db <tpl.bin>              (download TPL to init DRAM)
+ *   2. rkdeveloptool wl 0 u-boot-rockchip-ram.bin (write SPL+FIT to DRAM)
+ *
+ * USB download workflow with LDR bundle:
+ *   1. rkdeveloptool db u-boot-rockchip-ram-ldr.bin (single command boots)
+ */
+/*
+ * SPL_RAM_PAD_SIZE: Size to pad SPL when building RAM-loadable images.
+ * This is 128KB (0x20000), matching the typical offset where FIT is loaded
+ * relative to SPL in DRAM. When CONFIG_SPL_RAM is enabled, CONFIG_SPL_MAX_SIZE
+ * is often 0 (unlimited), so we use a fixed value here.
