As per the in-line comment, this is where distros should configure it.
Not via kernel command line parameters.
As found by looking at the implementation, while exploring the cause of
a bug on the Raspberry Pi 4, it was found that `cma=` on the command
line parameters will overwrite the values a device tree will have
configured for a given platform.
With this, the more recent 5.4 vendor kernel boots just fine on the
Raspberry Pi 4 using our common configuration.
This includes setting up everything for the mainline Raspberry Pi 4
image.
In fact, the only difference left in the Raspberry Pi 4-specific image
is the kernel from the vendor.
The current FAT32 partition is kept as it is required for the Raspberry
Pi family of hardware. It is where the firmware is kept.
The partition is kept bootable, and the boot files kept in there until
the following commits, to keep all commits of this series individually
bootable.
This will reduce the confusion at boot, where the only thing visible is
the last message from u-boot; where it looks like the board is
hung, while in reality it's likely resizing partitions.

Turns out all variants of start.elf and fixup.dat are needed (depending
on what's in config.txt). I was under the mistaken impression that you
were supposed to rename one of the variants to switch using them, but
nope.
