Hi Ben

Since this is a fix, it is a good idea to put Fix somewhere in the
subject.  You should also try to say which patch broke it. Looking at
the git logs, i think it was 65939301acdb1e593fdb424bd356f0b9bc7ba5be
"arm: set initrd_start/initrd_end for fdt scan" which came from Rob
Herring <rob.herring@xxxxxxxxxxx>. I added Rob to CC.
