Thanks.

After this, I want to discuss the possibility to use the new infrastructure for
our SoCs. The key is we have limited on-chip RAM before DDR is initialized. We
cannot use full va mapping for this reason for early MMU tables. We should have
not problem to use it for the final MMU tables. We are exploring initializing
DDR before U-Boot, but we are not anywhere close yet.
