While I agree in principle with Scott's point that it would be good to
understand and fix/improve the ARM bootm_linux_fdt() function, I have
bought into Dave's argument that this is a useful environment variable
and is symmetric with "initrd_high".
Consequently, I've added this patch to the u-boot-fdt repo. If anyone
has strong objects, now is the time to object strongly. ;-)
Thanks,
