Not so long ago I proposed a similar patchset with the same goal
and I have discovered massive issues with SPL and relocation
interfering with driver loading. 

The issue which I have personally encountered was i2c driver failure
due to double probing. This behavior was triggered by
always-on/boot-on regulators provided by pmic which in most
cases is an i2c device.

At that time everyone just ignored me, so idk if tegra i2c is the only
driver which has this response or there are more, but be aware that
this patch set may cause cascade failure on many devices.

Best regards,
Svyatoslav R.
