Dear Simon Glass,
> Much of the image code uses addresses as ulongs and pointers
> interchangeably, casting between the two forms as needed.

> This doesn't work with sandbox, which has a U-Boot RAM buffer which is
> separate from the host machine's memory.
>
> Adjust the cost so that translating from a U-Boot address to a pointer uses
> map_sysmem(). This allows bootm to work correctly on sandbox.
>
> Note that there are no exhaustive tests for this code on sandbox, so it is
> possible that some dark corners remain.
