Have you actually tried to write u-boot-with-spl.bin to SPI flash? The
only result I can see from your test is that U-Boot crashed after the
go command and the CPU simply booted again from the currently flashed
2020.04-rc1 image. Only the last test resulted in a permanent hang.
The final version mtmips SPL series (which got merged) was also tested
by Stefan Roese so it should simply work on your VoCore2 board.
You could also switch to tag 2020.07 and test that. It could also be
possible that something else got broken since 2020.07.
Just a quick note. I tested mainline (master) just right now and it
works without any issues (AFAICT) on the GARDENA 7688 board:
