Not new? I must be missing something then. I cannot find any reference
to CONFIG_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH anywhere in the current code.

CONFIG_LMB is indeed not new, but a misnomer that should by fixed.
Also, an explanation should be added to the README. [I am aware that
this is not a fault of your patch.]

CONFIG_RELOC_FIXUP_WORKS is also a misnomer now, and undocumented :-(

Please make sure to proovide such information, it _is_ important.
