It's in master by now.

As explained, reasonable values for _START are just above the
exception vectors - if any, and _END should be a bit below the space
used for U-Boot's stack.
I have to admit that I don't understand what the i.MX6 port is doing
with the memory. Normally, a warmboot should not change it's content,
yet here it does. Also I don't think there are exception vectors
actually used in low memory, because when I erase all this memory the
system still continues to run.
Sorry, I'm afraid I'm not much of a help here.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
