Please explain why you would want to do this. To me it makes no
sense. Either U-Boot knows the correct memory size, then it should
pass it to Linux. Or it does not, then U-Boot should be fixed.
Also, I object that your implementation is ARM specific. If such a
feature gets added, it should be architecture independent.
Thanks.
