My reading of the manual and comments in the BSP U-Boot is that the high
address near the VE registers is the "real" address. The alternate SRAM
mapping just past the end of SRAM A1 exists specifically so the boot ROM
can load boot0/TOC0 images larger than would fit in SRAM A1.

I don't have a copy of the V3s BROM, but here's the logic from the
beginning of the H6 SBROM, which first enables the VE bus clock and
reset before mapping the SRAM:

; VE_BGR_REG |= BIT(16)
     2dc:  e59f113c  ldr r1, [pc, #316] ; 420
     2e0:  e5912000  ldr r2, [r1]
     2e4:  e3a03801  mov r3, #65536 ; 0x10000
     2e8:  e1822003  orr r2, r2, r3
     2ec:  e5812000  str r2, [r1]
; VE_BGR_REG |= BIT(0)
     2f0:  e59f1128  ldr r1, [pc, #296] ; 420
     2f4:  e5912000  ldr r2, [r1]
     2f8:  e3a03001  mov r3, #1
     2fc:  e1822003  orr r2, r2, r3
     300:  e5812000  str r2, [r1]
; SRAM_CTRL_REG0 &= BIT(31)
     304:  e3a01403  mov r1, #50331648 ; 0x3000000
     308:  e5912000  ldr r2, [r1]
     30c:  e3c220ff  bic r2, r2, #255 ; 0xff
     310:  e3c22cff  bic r2, r2, #65280 ; 0xff00
     314:  e3c228ff  bic r2, r2, #16711680 ; 0xff0000
     318:  e3c2247f  bic r2, r2, #2130706432 ; 0x7f000000
     31c:  e5812000  str r2, [r1]
; SRAM_CTRL_REG1 = BIT(24) | BIT(0)
     320:  e59f10fc  ldr r1, [pc, #252] ; 424
     324:  e3a02401  mov r2, #16777216 ; 0x1000000
     328:  e1822003  orr r2, r2, r3
     32c:  e5812000  str r2, [r1]
...
     420:  .word 0300169c
     424:  .word 03000004

Then U-Boot SPL[1] sets the SRAM back to "normal mode" before turning
off the VE gating and reset:

	//VE SRAM:set sram to normal mode, default boot mode
	reg_val = readl(SUNXI_SYSCRL_BASE+0X0004);
	reg_val &= ~(0x1<<24);
	writel(reg_val, SUNXI_SYSCRL_BASE+0X0004);

	//VE gating&VE Bus Reset :brom set them, but not require now
	reg_val = readl(CCMU_VE_BGR_REG);
	reg_val &= ~(0x1<<0);
	reg_val &= ~(0x1<<16);
	writel(reg_val, CCMU_VE_BGR_REG);

Other SoCs have a similar code to unmap SRAM C[2]. The AHB1 bus clock
frequency limitation makes sense given that it has to go through the VE
hardware block to get to the SRAM.

In fact, the AHB1 clock limitation when using the low mapping should be
reason enough to prefer the high mapping.

Cheers,
Samuel
