For i.MX8MQ, I think we may need to leave with SPL_POWER_LEGACY,
the board has 256KB TCM, but u-boot-spl-ddr.bin is almost using all
of them if enabling SPL_DM, other SPL_OF_CONTROL and other DM drivers.
u-boot-spl.bin itself is 90KB+, but ddr firmware and hdmi.bin are packed
in u-boot-spl-ddr.bin, the image is a bit large.

Peng
