Here u-boot can get kernel info and print into UART consol but after loading uncompressed image from 0x41000000 to 0x40020000 u-boot transfer its control to linux kernel and here my hardware goes reset means can't run kernel at 0x40020000.

Once you've got this point, you're no longer in the U-Boot environment.

I suggest you repost over on one of the Linux mailing lists.
