You need to upgrade your kernel.  A bug was fixed in 2.4.0-test11-rmk1
(from the changelogs on www.arm.linux.org.uk):

  Calculate value for 21285's SDRAMBASEMASK register correctly when we don't
  have a power of 2 memory size

In general, whenever a problem is discovered, it is always good to try
upgrading to the latest software to see if the problem has been fixed.
I currently recommend upgrading to 2.4.0-rmk3.
