+ Some U-Boot pointers have redundant information, so we can use a
+ scheme where we can return either an error code or a pointer with the
+ same return value. The default implementation just casts the pointer
+ to a number, however, this may fail on platforms where the end of the
+ address range is used for valid pointers (e.g. 0xffffff00 is a valid
+ heap pointer in socfpga SPL).
+ For such platforms, this value provides an upper range of those error
+ pointer values - up to 'MAX_ERRNO' bytes below this value must be
+ unused/invalid addresses.
