    48	 * Check the start of physical memory

    50	 * Traditionally, the start address of physical memory is obtained by masking
    51	 * the program counter.  However, this does require that this address is a
    52	 * multiple of 128 MiB, precluding booting Linux on platforms where this
    53	 * requirement is not fulfilled.
    54	 * Hence validate the calculated address against the memory information in the
    55	 * DTB, and, if out-of-range, replace it by the real start address.
    56	 * To preserve backwards compatibility (systems reserving a block of memory
    57	 * at the start of physical memory, kdump, ...), the traditional method is
    58	 * always used if it yields a valid address.
    59	 *
    60	 * Return value: start address of physical memory to use
