yeah, but 
I`ll try your approach to copy the archsw-block before defsw  in
/stand/uboot/common/main.c tonight,
because the previous loader.efi worked .
(while aarch64 doesn't have problems with the new loader-changes)
the problem with this machine is :
Physical memory chunk(s):
  0x80000000 - 0x27fffffff,  8192 MB (2097152 pages)
Excluded memory regions:
  0x80000000 - 0x8001ffff,     0 MB (     32 pages) NoAlloc NoDump
  0xf6600000 - 0xf70ecfff,    10 MB (   2797 pages) NoAlloc 
Found 4 CPUs in the device tree

-
every attempt(after u-boot) to access that regions results in panic but if the
OS is once booted everything is O.K.
everything in u-boot is O.K. since opensbi tells u-boot to exclude these
regions.
but it seems that no mechanism exists to tell loader.efi the protected memory
parameters(while @mhorne made a patch for the booted OS as for opensbi) IIRC.
since I don`t know other code in the loader-changes that could trigger the
relocation-issue I hope your failure analysis is also valid for riscv...thanks
