I believe this is the wrong approach.
Instead you should fix the relocation/fixup routine not to relocate
NULL ptrs. NULL ptrs are absolute values and should be left as is.

See http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot.git;a=commit;h=d1e0b10accdbac2e0a8b2cbf7c589645442f87c5
for a fix to ppc that went in recently
