That was my first reaction as well.   But, I'm not so sure after looking
at things more.  An issue is that CONFIG_MALLOC_F_ADDR should probably
be CONFIG_SPL_MALLOC_F_ADDR as it's only used in SPL.  But it's also not
an either/or around CONFIG_SPL_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN.

It would be good to move to Kconfig (but I also don't see a common
default for the handful of SoCs using it), and maybe a !CONFIG_VAL()
test instead of ifndef.
