4. Relocatable kernel (like x86)

If I understand correctly it already is relocatable. This is simply the address that uboot is instructed to load the kernel into memory at.

5. Have U-Boot process uImage to adjust for load location (U-Boot
already does a similar thing for itself)

Likewise, this is the address uboot is instructed to load the kernel at. My naive understanding is that uboot loads the header, analyzes it, then loads the rest of the file based on the content of that header. If the header instructs uboot to load the kernel into non-existent memory it not operate correctly.
