From your commit in ad0c1a3d2cea03011091b07e9e066bf261d1556e message I
cannot infer which address would pose a problem and why.

You only mentioned it should be a place where the fdt can stay. Isn't
this any address in a reserved memory area?

You did not provide any reference to a document recommending that an
address around 128 MB should be favorable. Was the memory reservation
missing at that time?

Best regards

Heinrich
