Can you explain more and point to the code that is using the nsbase +
0x1c?  Specifically the only code I see that uses the nsbase + 0x1c is
the code that is located at nsbase, which is the code we're
overwriting here.  I'd imagine you're using U-Boot code that looks
something like the bits that start at code_base here:

https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/third_party/u-boot/+/ce358daf5069f1dc145b0f9d403cfbb028271807/arch/arm/cpu/armv7/exynos/lowlevel.S

With my kernel change you can completely eliminate U-Boot's
installation of this code (or keep it, it makes no difference).
