Was your u-boot environment initialised by an older version of u-boot?
The proper fix for this issue is to set bootm_size=0x100000 which is
done in the default env but I suppose won't happen for an existing env.

I think there is a suboption of the "env" command which will reset a
given option to its default, but I don't have a CLI available right now
to look. You could also reset all variables with the "env" command, but
I could understand not wanting to.
