I am currently working on POST tests support for keymile boards, especially
km_kirkwood (km_arm) boards.

I have taken your above patches (I had noticed them before) and I have POST
tests running on km_arm. For the tests that take place after relocation of code,
there is no problem, they work fine.

With the memory test, that takes place before the relocation, it is extremly
slow (even if I reduce the size of the memory tested to a very small portion).
Is it something you have noticed as well ?

Thank you

Valentin
