+Subject: [PATCH] HACK: arch: arm: force ZRELADDR on arch-qcom
+
+ARCH_QCOM is using the ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM option, as now recommended
+on most ARM architectures. This automatically calculate ZRELADDR by
+masking PHYS_OFFSET with 0xf8000000.
+
+However, on IPQ806x, the first ~20MB of RAM is reserved for the hardware
+network accelerators, and the bootloader removes this section from the
+layout passed from the ATAGS (when used).
+
+For newer bootloader, when DT is used, this is not a problem, we just
+reserve this memory in the device tree. But if the bootloader doesn't
+have DT support, then ATAGS have to be used. In this case, the ARM
+decompressor will position the kernel in this low mem, which will not be
+in the RAM section mapped by the bootloader, which means the kernel will
+freeze in the middle of the boot process trying to map the memory.
+
+As a work around, this patch allows disabling AUTO_ZRELADDR when
+ARCH_QCOM is selected. It makes the zImage usage possible on bootloaders
+which don't support device-tree, which is the case on certain early
+IPQ806x based designs.
