I assume there's more platforms coming in, and thus the common and mx6
split.  But I still see some problems.

It's really really frowned upon to put the ipaddr/etc in to the
hard-coded default environment.  Is this absolutely necessary?

This should just be in the device tree (for Linux!) and we should be
parsing that.

16MB for kernel + BSS is very very small.  You're likely to hit
overlaps.

What is the smallest amount of memory you need to work with on these
platforms?  The header I referenced in the other thread spells out a
bunch of safe sizes / offsets to use, but that can be tricky on smaller
memory platforms.
