KiB
You may want to split this explicitly in 256 KiB for U-boot, and 256 KiB for the
U-boot bootargs, to help people needing low-level recovery.

Thanks, the new split makes sense to me.

It's not the "reg" property that must match the "<unit-addres>", but the

No, that would change the size.
"reg = <0x00080000 ...>" means you must use "... at 80000".

"reg = <0x00600000 ...>" means you must use "... at 600000".
