I'm gonna risk making a fool out of myself since I've never actually
worked with ARM, but...

vmlinux is (for all other platforms I've used) an ELF image, not a raw
binary. In order to be usable for u-boot, you need to run

<path-to-your-cross>objcopy -S -O binary vmlinux vmlinux.bin

and then use the resulting vmlinux.bin instead.
