ARM: tegra: restrict usable RAM size further

Additionally, ARM64 devices typically run a secure monitor in EL3 and
U-Boot in EL2, and set up some secure RAM carve-outs to contain the EL3
code and data. These carve-outs are located at the top of 32-bit address
space. Restrict U-Boot's RAM usage to well below the location of those
carve-outs. Ideally, we would the secure monitor would inform U-Boot of
exactly which RAM it could use at run-time. However, I'm not sure how to
do that at present (and even if such a mechanism does exist, it would
likely not be generic across all forms of secure monitor).
