There is still a task on my TODO list to convert and interpret
CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE as physical address on MIPS so that patch would
actually not be necessary. Paul already prepared some patches in the
past, but additionally we need to properly support map_physmem() and fix
some places in common code. Until we have this, I'll apply this patch,
thanks.
