I see that at least one machine solves that by doing:
config ARCH_EP93XX
...
select AUTO_ZRELADDR if !ZBOOT_ROM
That said, given the way Tegra works, ZBOOT_ROM isn't useful; typically,
systems don't use NOR flash for storage of the kernel, so I don't think
ZBOOT_ROM is likely to be used. Perhaps we should just depend on !ZBOOT_ROM?
