The "Hackish" solution is to add:

@@ -85,6 +85,10 @@ void ddr_load_train_firmware(enum fw_type type)
                }
        }
 
+       imem_start -= 0x1000;
+       dmem_start -= 0x1000;
+
        pr_from32 = imem_start;
        pr_to32 = IMEM_OFFSET_ADDR;
        for (i = 0x0; i < imem_len; ) {

(The -= 0x1000 is the size of QSPI header added to the beginning of the
image.)

Simon, has recently prepared set of binman related patches, so maybe
they provided offset to fix it.
