rockchip: mkimage: set init_boot_size to avoid confusing the boot ROM
This change restores the earlier setting of init_boot_size to include the maximum area covered by the the boot ROM of each chip for resolve issues with back-to-bootrom functionality reported by Kever and Heiko. To ensure that we don't run into the same issue again in the future, I have updated the comments accordingly and added a reference to the mailing list archive (there's some very helpful info from Andy Yan that provides background on the BootROM requirements regarding these fields). See https://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2017-May/293267.html for some background (by Andy Yan) of how the BootROM processes this field.
