So what's the significance of this address? That's 528MB into DRAM, so
somewhat in the middle of it, fragmenting the physical address space.
And is there any other firmware component that needs to know about this
address?
Cheers,
Andre

Hi, Andre,
there is nothing special about this address.
Range from 0x40000000 - 0x50000000 is heavily used by u-boot for
internal use and to load kernel, fdt, fdto, scripts, pxefile and ramdisk
later in the boot process.
Ramdisk start address is 0x4FF00000, Mobian initramfs for PinePhone
for kernel with some hacking features and debug info enabled can
take more than 100Mb and final address will be around 0x58000000.
So I've picked address that will most likely not overlap with
that. Probably it can be moved below 512Mb. If you have address
suggestion, I'd happy to check it.
