But I can't make that match what U-Boot does. AFAICS, u-boot/arch/mips/lib/bootm.c doesn't care about 32 or 64 bit, and simply does:

U-Boot isn't the only firmware used with MIPS systems, and in fact it's quite a recent addition; e.g. DEC REX and SGI ARCS firmware goes back at least to 1990 and we continue supporting these systems. There's also CFE, PMON, YAMON, etc.
