Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: Calculate VMLINUZ_LOAD_ADDRESS based on the length of
vmlinux.bin
Fix VMLINUZ_LOAD_ADDRESS calculation to be based on the length of vmlinux.bin,
the actual uncompressed kernel binary.
Previously it was based on the length of KBUILD_IMAGE (the unstripped ELF
vmlinux), which is bigger than vmlinux.bin.
As a result, vmlinuz was loaded into a memory address higher then actually
needed - a problem for small memory platforms.
