Unfortunately I won't have time to focus on this platform in depth,
with the Armada 388 soon reaching its end of life per Marvell.

Sales and management want to focus on new opportunities.

My only guess so far is the observation that environment
"loadaddr" was equal to the memory buffer address used by
CONFIG_MMC_SDHCI_SDMA

Changing it however didn't seem to resolve the issue.

I am also wondering if SPL may have the same issue,
though it never loads anything as big as kernel or ramdisk.

Anyone interested in working on this by themselves may
reach out to me with questions.
