I'm running into the same issue on a PXA270 system.

UNCACHED_PHYS_0 is used as an immediate operand to a mov instruction, and thus 
needs to be encoded as a shifted 8-bit value. One simple solution would be to 
hardcode it to 0xfd000000 (0xfe000000 is already used for the IMEMC mapping).

Another solution would be to keep the UNCACHED_PHYS_0 mapping at the end of 
the vmalloc area (with a fix for the UL problem due to VMALLOC_END) and modify 
pxa2[57]x_finish_suspend and pm_enter_standby_start to use an ldr instruction 
instead of a move instruction to load the address.

As a side note, the IMEMC mapping seems unused, maybe we could thus reclaim it 
and use 0xfe000000 for UNCACHED_PHYS_0.

Do you plan to submit a v3 of this patch ?
