But it does add more complexity; somebody has to pick, and potentially
keep adjusting, the split between text/rodata/data and bss, even
though they don't care about that split, but it's an implementation
wart. It's also trivial to fix it properly as I described.

But, if it absolutely has to be that way, then OK. However, I would
ask that at least the Tegra board configuration files be set up so
that the previous overall restriction (bss doesn't overlap the main
U-Boot) be left in tact, so we don't have to debug that problem again.
