+To execute the command everything has to be in place as if bootm should be +used. +(kernel image, initrd-image, fdt-image etc.)
+Call is: +savebp [ftd|atags] [nand_offset] [kernel_addr] [initrd_addr] [fdt_addr]
+Only the first parameter [ftd|atags] is mandatory if the others are left blank +standard values are used.
