We should not forget that right now, the "ELF" method uses 8 byte entries
to relocate, compared to 4 byte entries with the "GOT" method. We
should not proceed too fast here, the "thought about" tool to squeeze down
the relocation information should not be completely forgotten...

Otherwise even more boards would need to change their mtd partitioning ;)

And I am not too happy if I cannot downgrade to the AT91SAM9XE256 anymore
(256K NOR) if the 512K version proves difficult to obtain ;)
