I grep'd in the area that holds where I did the
investigative patch that enabled the RPi4 to boot
and such without the armstub8-gic.bin memory being
slamed. (I've not done any clean-out of the materials
in that area.)

The result is not suggestive of CONFIG_RPI_EFI_NR_SPIN_PAGES
making a difference:

# grep -r CONFIG_RPI_EFI_NR_SPIN_PAGES =
/wrkdirs/usr/ports/sysutils/u-boot-rpi4/work/u-boot-2019.10/
#

(I.e., nothing found.) The same was true for grep'ing
in the wider area:

/wrkdirs/usr/ports/sysutils/u-boot-rpi4/work/

By contrast, for CONFIG_ENV_FAT_DEVICE_AND_PART :

# grep -r CONFIG_ENV_FAT_DEVICE_AND_PART =
/wrkdirs/usr/ports/sysutils/u-boot-rpi4/work/u-boot-2019.10/
=
/wrkdirs/usr/ports/sysutils/u-boot-rpi4/work/u-boot-2019.10/configs/am65x_=
evm_r5_defconfig:CONFIG_ENV_FAT_DEVICE_AND_PART=3D"1:1"
. . . (I'll not show the other 33 lines of matches) . . .

I will show .h and .c source lines using
CONFIG_ENV_FAT_DEVICE_AND_PART :

wrkdirs/usr/ports/sysutils/u-boot-rpi4/work/u-boot-2019.10/env/fat.c:		=
			CONFIG_ENV_FAT_DEVICE_AND_PART,
/wrkdirs/usr/ports/sysutils/u-boot-rpi4/work/u-boot-2019.10/env/fat.c:		=
			CONFIG_ENV_FAT_DEVICE_AND_PART,
=
/wrkdirs/usr/ports/sysutils/u-boot-rpi4/work/u-boot-2019.10/include/config=
s/sama5d27_som1_ek.h:#define CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND	"fatload mmc " =
CONFIG_ENV_FAT_DEVICE_AND_PART " 0x21000000 at91-sama5d27_som1_ek.dtb; " =
\
=
/wrkdirs/usr/ports/sysutils/u-boot-rpi4/work/u-boot-2019.10/include/config=
s/sama5d27_som1_ek.h:				"fatload mmc " =
CONFIG_ENV_FAT_DEVICE_AND_PART " 0x22000000 zImage; " \
=
/wrkdirs/usr/ports/sysutils/u-boot-rpi4/work/u-boot-2019.10/include/config=
s/sama5d2_xplained.h:#define CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND	"fatload mmc " =
CONFIG_ENV_FAT_DEVICE_AND_PART " 0x21000000 at91-sama5d2_xplained.dtb; " =
\
=
/wrkdirs/usr/ports/sysutils/u-boot-rpi4/work/u-boot-2019.10/include/config=
s/sama5d2_xplained.h:				"fatload mmc " =
CONFIG_ENV_FAT_DEVICE_AND_PART " 0x22000000 zImage; " \

A file that lists the potential CONFG_* names seems to be:

=
/wrkdirs/usr/ports/sysutils/u-boot-rpi4/work/u-boot-2019.10/u-boot.cfg.con=
figs

and it does not have CONFIG_RPI_EFI_NR_SPIN_PAGES .


I've no evidence that 2019.10 would make any use of
a CONFIG_RPI_EFI_NR_SPIN_PAGES definition.

Still, I can try it later if desired.
