I've tried to explain already that this is broken. The problem is
__early_init_dt_declare_initrd using __va() which happens before this
function is called. __va() uses PHYS_OFFSET which in turn is defined
as memstart_addr. However, memstart_addr may be changed just above
this hunk, so the earlier conversion to a VA may not be valid at this
point. This is explained if you read Ard's commit that added all this
mess.

You could fix this by converting back to a PA before adjusting
memstart_addr, but that's 2 wrongs making a right and fragile. The
better solution is the other proposal making the DT code set
phys_initrd_* (whatever the ARM code calls them).

Kind of inconsistent to mix __phys_to_virt and __pa flavors.
