For example, my SoC, configs/uniphier_ld20_defconfig,
needs to set CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE to 0x100000
because its Boot ROM loads SPL onto 0x100000.

It is not user-configurable at all, so I do not see much sense for the prompt.
I am not quite sure for other SoCs, but I guess similar situation.

(If we support relocation for SPL, we can make SPL_TEXT_BASE
a configurable parameter, but we do not have it at this point of time.)


Is it better to hide the prompt unless EXPERT is defined?

config SPL_TEXT_BASE
       hex "SPL Text Base" if EXPERT

I would be okay with this, I only really need this as a Kconfig option
so I can easily set it on a per defconfig basis
(am335x_evm_{boot_type}_defconfig), as you stated this isn't really for
users to change and so should be hidden by default.
