If we cannot relocate the kernel Image to its preferred offset of base of DRAM plus TEXT_OFFSET, instead relocate it to the lowest available 2 MB boundary plus TEXT_OFFSET. We may lose a bit of memory at the low end, but we can still proceed normally otherwise.

Will's already taken this into arm64/devel [1,2] with the intention of waiting for v3.18 [3]. Per Leif's comment [4] that might have to be bumped. Will? Mark.
