No, unfortunately it's not. _start_440 is loaded into the last 4k of bootrom
(via linker script), since 440 has a shadow TLB upon startup to only map 4k
of address space. After looking at System.map it seems that _start_of_vectors
seems to be the way to go for 4xx:
fffa0004 T version_string
fffa0100 t CritcalInput
fffa0100 T _start_of_vectors
But I don't want to introduce some #ifdef here. Perhaps it would be better to
introduce a common (PPC) label that points to the beginning of the U-Boot
image here.
BTW: I think this version:
len = (ulong)&_end - ((ulong)&_start - EXC_OFF_SYS_RESET);
instead of:
len = (ulong)&_end - (ulong)&_start + EXC_OFF_SYS_RESET;
is better. Makes the transition from CFG_MONITOR_BASE clearer, don't you think
so?

Yes, it's quite complex because it supports all 4xx variants.
