You mean a patch for fixing the uImage format?

I've seen that the U-Boot mkimage now has a

#define IH_TYPE_KERNEL_NOLOAD	14	/* OS Kernel Image, can run from any load address */

This means that we could change the generated uImage type to this
one, but it would also mean that you need a very recent version
of the mkimage tool.

Also 'any load address' is not quite correct, instead for Arm zImages
with CONFIG_AUTO_ZRELADDR it's the first 128MB of SDRAM.

Use zImages...
