Care to explain in more details about the overlap?

Currently we use the following addresses:

- dtb: 0x11000000
- kernel: 0x12000000

Now you propose:

- kernel: 0x12000000
- dtb: 0x18000000

If the kernel is larger in FSL 3.10.9 kernel, how it can overlap with
dtb, since in the original code the kernel goes after the dtb?

I have never used FSL 3.10.9 kernel, so I am curious about this fix.

Regards,

Fabio Estevam
