Here is the 16MiB flash layout, I have used. I can see the loader1
(tpl/spl) can be possible to load at 0x0 or 0x32K so I have given the
space for it. and 8K env after loader2(u-boot). let me know your
thoughts?

0x0 - 0x8000, 32K => reserved/loader1
0x8000 - 0x40000, 224K => loader1
0x40000 - 0x140000, 1M => loader2
0x140000 - 0x142000, 8K => env
0x142000 - 0x842000, 7M => kernel
0x842000 - 0x853800, 100K => dtb
0x853800 - => root
