Good point. Thank you.

But I think that the value loaded to sp is still wrong because of the
restrictions on immediate arguments in ARM instructions.

with (0x80000000 + 128*1024 -16):

and neither image is bootable.

doing so here yields unusable images also and the values assigned to
sp seem to be the same as above.

with (0xffff0000 + 8*1024 - 16):
