Understood, please ignore these patches then.

I got this working, but I got stuck on the code in
`dram_init_banksize` that tries to read reserved memory from
OP-TEE. When left unmodified it mangles the ram banks and tells Linux
it has 4GB+ of memory. So, I was looking for a way around that.

I was also not aware that it's possible to tell the Rockchip TPL where
to load the SPL. OP-TEE at 0x1000 was giving me a lot of grief.

Besides these two issues, I'm actually quite happy to see that my
branch matches yours pretty well, for my first attempt.

Thanks! I'm watching this and the kernel developments closely.

FWIW, I have some Debian images for the Lyra boards [1]. Not very
complicated, but I didn't see any options for Lyra besides the
vendor's SDK. I plan on swapping in upstream sources as they become
ready.
