Specifically?  No.  There should be a lot of general hits on
$search-engine over it however as not disabling and instead using
bootm_size is how to fix "Kernel suddenly stops booting... oh we're
overwriting fdt/initrd".

This isn't to say that disabling fdt/initrd relocation isn't a useful
production optimization, it is.  But it's not a good general best
practice.
