Haojian,

I think there is a pipeline execution of the mov pc, r0 instruction.
If I remember correctly you need to do a similar jump when you turn
the MMU on in early boot code. If it makes any difference I did test
this code on pxa168 before submitting it. I will double check the mmp2
and the pxa910 reset vectors with the Boot ROM developers.
