Side note: loading and starting U-Boot at an address different from the 
one which it was linked for is not currently supported.

Correct, since we're trying to find the post-relocation address of 
board_init_r, we should add the relocation offet to its link-time 
address, not run-time address -- the fact that both are the same right 
now is only incidental. Thus:

Applied to u-boot-arm, thanks.

Amicalement,
