Sure. You can basicly define this as you like; the general idea is
described in the README; normally we will reserve (dynamically, i. e.
as needed) space for PRAM, shared log buffer and/or video frame
buffer at the upper end of memory, so I would locate bd and gd and
the rest below that - but you don;t support these features so far for
microblaze, then above is fine.

I just would use sizeof() instead of fixed sizes (which tend to be
wrong sometimes ;-)

If you are looking for a reference, use arch/powerpc/lib/board.c,
starting here:

 394         /*
 395          * Now that we have DRAM mapped and working, we can
 396          * relocate the code and continue running from DRAM.
 397          *
 398          * Reserve memory at end of RAM for (top down in that order):
 399          *  - area that won't get touched by U-Boot and Linux (optional)
 400          *  - kernel log buffer
 401          *  - protected RAM
 402          *  - LCD framebuffer
 403          *  - monitor code
 404          *  - board info struct
 405          */


Best regards,
