16KB is large enough to install an "Initial Program Loader" which serves
the task of loading a more feature full bootloader or the OS itself but
not much more than that. Search the U-Boot mailing archives for arguments
against reducing the size of U-Boot, it's been asked many times
before. Besides, most vedors provide NAND flash IPL source code
which does what you want already. So why bother trying to gut
U-Boot to bare essentials when your vendor probably already
supplies that code?
