What is the header we need? I assume it's not compatible with our
previous headers. And if it's just a convenience for programming the
flash, maybe we just stick with two files, to avoid further headaches
upstream? It's a general rule that concatenating files would make
programming easier, but it's a small savings on either end, yes? This
would also make the packaging easier since it would just be
SPL_IMAGE_FILE (or whatever) set to u-boot-spl.gph and so forth. Thanks!
