You mention that tegra30 will require AUTO_ZRELADDR.
Well, just to be clear, here's the situation I think:

Tegra20's SDRAM starts at physical address 0.

Tegra30's SDRAM starts at physical address 2G.

To support that, we could either:

a) Introduce a new Kconfig variable for Tegra30, make T20/T30 mutually
exclusive, and update arch/arm/mach-tegra/Makefile.boot to set zreladdr
etc. based on the new Tegra30 config variable too. Then, there's no need
for AUTO_ZRELADDR anywhere.

b) Have no new config variable, build a unified T20/T30 kernel, leave
Makefile.boot untouched, and rely on using AUTO_ZRELADDR for Tegra30 to
account for the different SDRAM physical addresses.
Ok, thanks for the explanation, that makes it much clearer. For
completeness, you could also do both of the above and make T20/T30 mutually
exclusive unless AUTO_ZRELADDR is set. That might be more complex than
necessary, I don't know.
