Properties / Entry arguments:
None
-This is similar to u_boot_spl except that padding is added after the SPL
-binary to cover the BSS (Block Started by Symbol) region. This region holds
-the various used by SPL. It is set to 0 by SPL when it starts up. If you
-want to append data to the SPL image (such as a device tree file), you must
-pad out the BSS region to avoid the data overlapping with U-Boot variables.
-This entry is useful in that case. It automatically pads out the entry size
-to cover both the code, data and BSS.
+This holds the padding added after the SPL binary to cover the BSS (Block

+The contents of this entry will a certain number of zero bytes, determined
+by __bss_size
The ELF file 'spl/u-boot-spl' must also be available for this to work, since
binman uses that to look up the BSS address.
