All rockchip based arm64 ATF run from the start 64KB of dram as this 
will give convenient for kernel manage the memory.

On the other hand, change the ATF load address will break the 
compatibility of the exiting firmware.

The SPL is loaded by bootrom after TPL back to bootrom, so the load 
address if fixed by bootrom code.

I know we can build mmc or other storage driver into TPL so we can use 
tpl load spl on some platform that sram is big enough, but there are 
also many rockchip soc has very small sram, so we tend to only do dram  
initialization in tpl, and let bootrom load next stage .
