Unable to calculate the addresses myself, I found in U-boot
already stated address variables of Linux kernel /boot/uImage and
ramdisk /uInitrd to be respecively addr_kern=0x680000, and
addr_rd=0x1100000, which is an offset of 5568KiB.
As stated earlier, it is possible to load kernel.bin from address
0x600000, perhaps 0x680000 is just enough. Will try this,
reporting back in some hours.
