Wrong.

Assuming you have a simple configuration (no pRAM, no log buffer, no
video buffer etc.) then the memory map (as explained in the README,
btw) is like that:

top of RAM (in your case 0x08000000 - 1)
...	U-Boot code, data and bss
relocaddr
...	Malloc Arena
...	Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data
...	Stack (growing downward)


Depending on the size of your malloc arena you need to stay far enough
away from relocaddr;  try with 1 MB or more.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
