Freescale never ported U-Boot to the MPC855ADS platform, and
I don't believe it came with any software at all. This IMMR value was
chosen to be backward compatible with some old software tools to
get a compact address space without the need of using the MMU,
long before we had Linux running on the platform.

I think you better be pointing fingers at the clueless person that
provided the software you have, as it didn't come from Freescale nor
any of the public U-Boot sources.
