This patch stores the values in r1 and r2 at startup. It also stores the address
which u-boot was originally loaded to. This is useful if you feed some other
bootloader a u-boot.bin instead of the linux kernel it was expecting. It is
rather ugly because it stores these values in an arbitrary memory address.
