Just to be explicit: you _must_ map your flash _well_above_ 0xC000_0000
(the start of the linux kernel area) if you want to run linux.
Since _you_ control BR0 (don't listen to them hardware engineers), you
can put it anywhere you want. 0xFF00_0000 is a good spot. 0xFFF0_0000
is not as good of a spot because it limits you to 16MB of flash. Think
big. ;-)
