70-------------------------------
71During boot i.e. IFC Region #1:-
72 0x30000000 - 0x37ffffff : 128MB : NOR flash
73 0x3C000000 - 0x40000000 : 64MB : CPLD

75After relocate to DDR i.e. IFC Region #2:-
76 0x5_1000_0000..0x5_1fff_ffff Memory Hole
77 0x5_2000_0000..0x5_3fff_ffff IFC CSx (CPLD, NAND and others 512MB)
78 0x5_4000_0000..0x5_7fff_ffff ASIC or others 1GB

126Booting Linux flavors which do not support 48-bit VA (< Linux 3.18)
127-------------------------------------------------------------------
128One needs to use appropriate bootargs to boot Linux flavors which do
129not support 48-bit VA (for e.g. < Linux 3.18) by appending mem=2048M, as shown
130below:
131
132=> setenv bootargs 'console=ttyS1,115200 root=/dev/ram
133 earlycon=uart8250,mmio,0x21c0600,115200 default_hugepagesz=2m hugepagesz=2m
134 hugepages=16 mem=2048M'
