The 32-bit ARM Linux kernel booting ABI requires that r0 is 0
when calling the kernel image. A bug in commit 10b8ec73e610e01
meant that for boards which use the write_board_setup hook (which
means "highbank", "midway", "raspi2" and "xilinx-zynq-a9") we
were incorrectly skipping the "clear r0" instruction in the
mini-bootloader. Use the right offset in the "add lr, pc, #n"
instruction so that we return from the board-setup code to the
correct place.
