This patch maybe not that correct according to the doc from Linux kernel.
"
The Image must be placed text_offset bytes from a 2MB aligned base
address anywhere in usable system RAM and called there. The region
between the 2 MB aligned base address and the start of the image has no
special significance to the kernel, and may be used for other purposes.
"

Now I do not have a good idea that we may have a spin table in the start
of DRAM or even a small firmware.

Is it better to change gd->bd->bi_dram[0].start?
For example physical dram starts from 0x80000000, but 4K is reserved at the beginning.
So is it ok to change gd->bd->bi_dram[0].start to 0x80001000?

Thanks,
Peng.
