Hi Marek
When you adopt CONFIG_SPL_BUILD framework, no CONFIG_NAND_SPL, if the
addr of destination is equal to _start, we should skip u-boot relocation.
In the last, u-boot will count the dest addr, see the below:
adr r1, _start
add lr, r0, r1
add lr, lr, r9
Here, lr = lr + r9, r9 is the offset of u-boot, So when it do not neet
to reolocat, we need to set the zero value for r9 register.
/* setup parameters for board_init_r */
mov r0, r5 /* gd_t */
mov r1, r6 /* dest_addr */
/* jump to it ... */
mov pc, lr
Thanks,
hongbo
