    mpc85xx: increase available RAM on Extreme Networks WS-AP3825i
    
    The system-mamory size was page-aligned prior to this commit, only
    enabling to use 192MB of system memory of the 256 available.
    
    This was due to the system-memory being manually shrinked to reserve the
    upper 1MB for the second-core bootpage in the loader as well as the OS.
    
    Fix this properly in the loader and in Linux using reserved-memory
    definitions. This enables the device to use 250MB of system memory.

+Subject: [PATCH] arch: powerpc: simpleboot: prevent overwrite of CPU1
+ spin-table
+
+Don't overwrite the spin-table of additional CPU cores with loader-heap.
+
+U-Boot places the spin-table for CPU1 on P1020 SoCs in the top 1MB of
+system-memory. Instead of parsing reserved-memory (which would be
+considerable more work), reduce the available system-memory for the
+loader by 1MB.
+
+This prevents the loader from overwriting the spin-table of
+additional CPU cores on these platforms.
+
+Linux itself needs to be made aware by this using reserved-memory
+definitions.
+
+This patch is required for using CPU1 on the Extreme Networks
+WS-AP3825i.
