I'm not opposed to remove the 32MB restriction, but I would like to make
the behaviour independent of CONFIG_RELOCATABLE like it's on x86:

 - Use 32M if one specifies x...@32m
 - Use preferrably 32M, but fall back to another address if one
   specifies xxx or x...@0m.

I don't see any problem with that. But it would make behaviour equal
accross platforms.

Bernhard
