I tested this on Seaboard (Tegra 20).

Tested-by: Simon Glass <sjg at chromium.org>

I tried to test it on a snow (exynos5250) but couldn't really sync up
with our tree, so gave up. I am not completely sure about how the
CONFIG_SPL_BUILD stuff fits together in start.S and I got a build
error I wasn't sure how to correct (arch/arm/cpu/armv7/start.S:179:
undefined reference to `relocate_done')

Regards,
Simon
