Why do you want to change it?
We are writing the information to
flash_info[cfi_flash_num_flash_banks].base. flash_info_t.base is of type
phys_addr_t.
Furthermore the types are anyway the same:
include/fdtdec.h:24:typedef phys_addr_t fdt_addr_t;

Thanks for testing. I will set up a test scenario where I can debug what
is happening here.
