(BTW, thanks for fixing the way your mailer quotes. That's much more
readable to me.)

I'm still lost. Can you summarize the sequence of operations
performed, starting from the u-boot SPL elf file, and on each step
indicate which file is produced and which config option(s) from
CONFIG_SPL_[PBL_]{PAD_TO,MAX_SIZE} is(are) involved and why?

Also, in any case, if CONFIG_SPL_PBL_PAD is needed then it must be
added to README with its description.
