Subject[PATCH] riscv: head: use 0 as the default text_offset
Date
Commit 0f327f2aaad6 ("RISC-V: Add an Image header that boot loader can
parse.") adds an image header which "is based on ARM64 boot image
header and provides an opportunity to combine both ARM64 & RISC-V
image headers in future.". At that time, arm64's default text_offset
is 0x80000, this is to give "512 KB of guaranteed BSS space to put
the swapper page tables" as commit cfa7ede20f13 ("arm64: set TEXT_OFFSET
to 0x0 in preparation for removing it entirely") pointed out, but
riscv doesn't need the space, so use 0 as the default text_offset.

Before this patch, booting linux kernel on Sipeed bl808 M1s Dock
with u-boot booti cmd:
[ 0.000000] OF: fdt: Ignoring memory range 0x50000000 - 0x50200000
...
[ 0.000000] DMA32 [mem 0x0000000050200000-0x0000000053ffffff]
As can be seen, 2MB DDR(0x50000000 - 0x501fffff) can't be used by
linux.

After this patch, the 64MB DDR is fully usable by linux
[ 0.000000] DMA32 [mem 0x0000000050000000-0x0000000053ffffff]
