I don't see a problem with doing it sometime in 2014.  I did a test on
am335x a while back and it all seemed to be just fine.

What I would like to see around then, and isn't trivial but should be
doable, is making ARM's relocate_code take 3 args like everyone else
does.  It feels like it's just a matter of shifting a few lines of
crt0.S's code into relocate.S and dealing with args being passed in.
