Hi Becky,
What would be the "newest revision of U-Boot" that implements this
memory map? We're entering into moving-target territory again here where
we have no real idea which kernels are required or work or are even
supported on which versions of the firmware.. and of course this device
tree committed to mainline means that the next set of kernel.org won't
have the right data to boot what could be a perfectly workable kernel
on previous U-Boot versions.
Isn't there any documentation on this apart from git changesets hidden
behind obscure many-digit hashes?
