When trying to use the Android boot image with header version 2
on recent Qualcomm platforms, we get into some troubles.

First the kernel in-place address can be > 32bit, then since
we use the Android mkbootimg, it uses the default load address
which isn't big enough to uncompress the kernel.

Finally, the ramdisk also uses a default load address, and
it should be taken in account like for the kernel address.
