Your latest patch looks fine to me but I'm wondering why this is
needed in the first place.

On modern devices, we no longer wrap the kernel and initrd into an
u-boot image, but we boot it directly using bootz (arm) or booti
(arm64).

I see there's also one "mkimage -A arm" call to generate the boot
script.  Is that's what causing you the problem?
