Ah-HA!  You're using the wrong type of kernel image.  When booting
from u-boot, you should be using a 'uImage', not a 'zImage.elf'.
(generated with 'make uImage' in the kernel tree).  An you should use
the 'bootm' command to boot the kernel.

With bootm, u-boot can pass parameters to the kernel and it is u-boot
that does the uncompression (instead of the zImage wrapper).

Cheers,
