Some ARM SOC ROM need run the plug-in code first in IRAM and the
plugin-in code need appear at the beginning of the u-boot. ROM will
check the plugin-in header to do security check and run the plug-in
code to init the DDR etc. In this case the _start will be not the same
as TEXT_BASE.

Thanks for your comments. Cheers,
