Thanks a lot for your answer!
It seems the B2200 will need that patch as well, see openwrt/openwrt GitHub
issue 4691
i.e.: TruongSinh needed to switch to zImage to boot 5.10; so may be we need to
add a limit here as well?
Or somehow recommend users to patch u-boot when that patch will be present?
Thanks!!

Hello Li,
Hello Adrian,
Hello Szabolcs,
and all!!
First of all, what's the state of this patch? Is it mergeable as-is, or are
further changes required?
Secondly, does this device require the use of zImage or will the u-boot happily
load larger kernels?
See commit 81d694e30b4926fea057bd3e46d996a8f098b95a authored by Szabolcs.
Thanks a lot!

Hi Enrico,
In the device recipe "Device/glinet_gl-b2200" there is no
"KERNEL_SIZE", like in the other GL.Inet device recipe
"Device/glinet_gl-ap1300" which is already in tree.
While they use the same U-Boot binary [0], I hope these two devices
are able to load 4MB kernels already.
In the meantime Dongming answered my question on GL.Inet forums [1]:
Thanks for that solution. It’s possible to load >4MB kernel after patching
uboot [0]. I’ll do some test.
