Hi ,

I found out an issue when enabling ECC for P2041 platform with an amount
of memory of 8GB.
The routine "void dma_meminit(uint val, uint size)" is not adapted to
manage memory size greater or equal to 4GB due to the 'uint' type.
With this typing the dma_meminit sees 0 as size when memory is for
example at 8GB. So the ECC part of the memory is not initialized and
when going in memory the code crash.
To correct it you need to use phys_size_t type instead of uint.
It is the same thing for all routines that are called by "dma_meminit".
I attached a patch that able to correct it easily.
This patch should be integrated in the main branch I think so.

Regards,
Benoit
