This should be fine. You are calling fdt_chosen(), but we can still
run 'fdt chosen $initrd_start $initrd_end' after 'fdt boardsetup'. A
quick glance at fdt_chosen() suggest it can be run multiple times
without error.

You might add a comment in the U_BOOT_CMD that mentions boardsetup calls chosen.
