But new problem occur that the Kernel can't start at all.

Does the kernel start when you remove the splash screen?

yes!

When I mask the splash code the kernel start completely

I'm not a Linux expert, but could it be a case of memory areas overlapping between your splash code and kernel?

I also add this splash in the MLO,and it run well.

The uboot also boot well, but the kernel can't start also.

So, "overlapping" may be not the reson, because the kernel boot by uboot.
