Hello Heiko,
Thanks for the in-depth analysis.

This is due to the fact you're using a specific .lds, and your fix below
corrects this for your .lds indeed. However, there might be other boards
in the arm926 subtree which have their own .lds and would need the same
fix, so I'll find them all and extend your fix to others.

Thanks for spotting and fixing these. :)

I will -- thanks!

I will too. :)
Just one thing: are these TEXT_BASE / CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_DST
modifications in your patch really needed for the board to run, or are
they a manual layout optimization decided based on the code size reduction?
