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.
