Dear Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD,

I think it would be very unflexible if we have to use a static address
in flash that has to be defined at compile time.

Please make this more user-friendly and use an  environment  variable
for  it  ("ucode_addr")  that  can  be easily adjusted by the user at
runtime (feel free to initialize it with  a  per  board  configurable
default value).

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
