"--pad-to=" with no argument behaves the same as "--pad-to=0", though  
since it's undocumented we now avoid relying on that behavior as you  
observed in a followup post.

I don't follow.  CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE is for where the payload gets  
loaded to, and has nothing to do with its position in the SPL-concat  
image, nor with the address that the SPL starts running at.
