A nit from sparse:
| warning: symbol 'arch_kimage_file_post_load_cleanup' was not declared

Can we add a definition for this to a header file somewhere. asm/kexec.h is
probably the best bet.

fdt_setprop_u64() already does the endian conversion.

From scripts/dtc/libfdt/libfdt.h, its implemented as:
| fdt64_t tmp = cpu_to_fdt64(val);
| return fdt_setprop(fdt, nodeoffset, name, &tmp, sizeof(tmp));

(I think you were using setprop directly in an older version)


This leads to:

Which is caused by the values being miles outside ram due to the extra byte
swapping:

| linux,initrd-end = <0x900b6c05 0x80000000>;
| linux,initrd-start = <0x906a04 0x80000000>;


With the two extra cpu_to_fdt64() calls removed:
