The U-Boot documentation explains that variables ending with "_r" hold addresses in DRAM, while those without that ending point to flash/ROM. The default variables for the Juno board pointing to the kernel and DTB load addresses were not complying with this scheme: they lack the extension, but point to DRAM. This is particularly confusing since the Juno board features parallel NOR flash, so there *is* a memory mapped NOR address holding a DTB, for instance.
Fix the variables to use the proper names. On the way adjust the FDT load address to be situated *before* the kernel, since users happened to overwrite the DTB by the kernel clearing its .BSS section during initialisation.
That fixes loading debug kernels, which happened to overwrite the DTB on certain setups.
