Merge patch series "Relocate U-Boot in the last bank"
Ilias Apalodimas <[email protected]> says:
There was a discussion recently on the mailing lists regarding our
management of memory above ram_top [0]. The tl;dr is that we have two problems.
The first one is that U-Boot always relocates to the top of the first available
bank unless there's special board code to sidestep that. The second is we don't
successfully deal with devices that can only do 32-bit DMA.
This patch series deals with the first problem by adding a Kconfig option
allowing platforms to relocate to the top of the last discovered bank.
It's worth noting that this is easily testable with QEMU
