[PATCH v4 4/5] rpi: Update environment to support booti and large initrd

The existing values don't provide for decompressing an arm64 boot-image.
Add those values and move things apart a bit so that a 50MB kernel can be
accommodated.

* scriptaddr and pxefile_addr_r can be pretty much anywhere that doesn't

* On ARM, both the DTB and any possible initrd must be loaded such that they
* fit inside the lowmem mapping in Linux. In practice, this usually means not
* more than ~700M away from the start of the kernel image but this number can
* be larger OR smaller depending on e.g. the 'vmalloc=xxxM' command line
* parameter given to the kernel. So reserving memory from low to high
- * satisfies this constraint again. Reserving 1M at 0x02600000-0x02700000 for
- * the DTB leaves rest of the free RAM to the initrd starting at 0x02700000.
- * Even with the smallest possible CPU-GPU memory split of the CPU getting
- * only 64M, the remaining 25M starting at 0x02700000 should allow quite
- * large initrds before they start colliding with U-Boot.
+ * satisfies this constraint again. Reserving 1M at 0x05600000-0x05700000 for
+ * the DTB leaves rest of the free RAM to the initrd starting at 0x05700000.
+ * This means that the board must have at least 128MB of RAM available to
+ * U-Boot, more if the initrd is large.
*
- * Limit bootm_size to 512MB so that all boot images stay within the bottom
+ * For compressed kernels, the maximum size is just under 32MB, with an area for
+ * decompression at 0x02000000 with space for 52MB, which is plenty for current
