As discussed elsewhere, maybe try the unpatched opensbi-generic.

So my main question is if you can use rvvm with an unmodified
opensbi-generic, passing opensbi-generic and the u-boot-rvvm as
commandline arguments? I know this can be done with qemu...

If it really isn't possible, then just drop the low-ram patch if that
still works.

Thanks!
