The 44x code (which is shared by 47x) assumes the available physical memory
begins at 0x00000000.  This is not necessarily the case in an AMP
environment.

Support CONFIG_RELOCATABLE for 476 in order to allow the kernel to be
loaded into a higher memory range.
I think the code assumes, the kernel is loaded in 256M aligned page. You may
want to mention that in the description here.

Thanks
Suzuki
