yes, but bdinfo isn't the only one affected. Currently we have two variants in "struct bd_info" of how to store the memory configuration:

- bi_memstart and bi_memsize
- struct bi_dram[CONFIG_NR_DRAM_BANKS] if a board or arch defines CONFIG_NR_DRAM_BANKS

Maybe we could unify this one day. But this requires changes to other commands and generic board init. Until then test/py should support both variants.
