Pardon my ignorance, but why is u-boot on SPI a no-go for us right now? I've noticed that other rk3399 hardware has achieved it (Khadas Edge has a script to flash u-boot to SPI in their wiki.) Would it not be possible to adapt these existing tools to flash SPI on the PBP?

Awesome work on this modification, btw! I'm looking forward to loading it onto my CrOs install today.
