Pass large amount of binary data from u-boot to linux kernel

Have some issues with passing large amount of data (3 MB) from uboot to linux kernel 2.6.35.3 on imx50 ARM board. This data is required in kernel device driver probe function and then it should be released. First uboot load data from flash to RAM, then pass physical address for linux kernel using bootargs. In kernel I try to reserve certain amount of memory using reserve_resource() in arch/arm/kernel/setup.c file:

};

By this I'm trying to tell kernel that this memory area it reserved and this data should not be modified by kernel.

70000000-77ffffff : System RAM
  70027000-7056ffff : Kernel text
  70588000-7062094f : Kernel data
  77c00000-77ffffff : My_Region

In driver ioremap(0x77c00000, AREA_SIZE) is used to get kernel memory address. But when I dump content of memory, there is only zeros. If boot kernel with mem=120M (total 128MB RAM is avaliable), then my data is above kernel system ram region, then I get data I expect.

So, my questions:

Why I get zeros and how do I pass large amount of binary data from uboot to linux kernel?
