The '_start' is using as vector table base address, and will write
to VBAR register, so it needs to be aligned to 0x20 for armv7.

     Do we really need the "b reset" here? the macro ARM_VECTORS already 
has a b reset.
Besides Joseph found  that the irq function will not work with this "b 
reset"

The quoted code was from an older version of the series, but the ‘b reset’ is still there
in the newer version.

What IRQ function does not work?
Shouldn't the IRQ be jumping into the ARM_VECTORS and never see the ‘b reset’?

We need the 'b reset' here,  this is not present at the same time with 
ARM_VECTORS,
I think what we need to handle is that we don't need boot0_hook in U-Boot,
let me send a patch to fix this.

Thanks,
