I would like get more information about this change.
I have spent some time on Microblaze to move to generic board
and I need to use sort of the same approach.
I will play with full reloc but as I see there will be a lot of additional
code generated which increase u-boot footprint and brings nothing.

That's why I would like to know why you have decided to use fake relocate_code
function and what setup you are using before and "after" relocation (location of stack, gd, malloc
areas, etc).

Thanks,
Michal
