There is no such requirement in the specification.
It even mentions requirements for ARMv4 in one place :)
But I also don't understand why ldr= should be avoided.
This is not performance sensitive (called once on system boot), and
it's already executing with the caches off, so even if it ends up
being a literal load it does not pollute.
