When I asked for a local version of this function I had something like
this in mind, not a complete copy of the function.

	volatile u32 *base = (void *)IMX_MEMORY_BASE;
	volatile u32 *ofs = base + SZ_128M;

	*base = *ofs = 0xdeadbeef;

	*ofs = 0x11223344;
	if (*base == 0x11223344)
		return SZ_128M;
	else
		return SZ_256M;
