Does the board have more common I/O available than Ethernet? MMC? SATA? 
If so, please add those too :).

This puts the device tree at 16MB. I don't know how smart the kernel is 
these days about accessing

   a) critical memory below its own starting point
   b) memory that might collide with its own relocation point

so to be safe I think you're better off putting the device tree 
somewhere higher up. Maybe around 800MB?

The board yes, U-Boot no. :) That's why I needed to get PXE to work. ;)
Thanks for your help.

FTR I noticed that in v2016.11-rc3 `bootp; bootefi 0x01000000` leads to
an odd $net_{default,efinet0}_mac in GRUB. CONFIG_DISTRO_DEFAULTS
(pulling in CONFIG_CMD_DHCP) resolved this, even when not booting
through the distro framework as before.

BTW it was unclear to me why CONFIG_CMD_SOURCE was disabled in the
defconfig - the distro framework emits an error if missing when it first
tries to execute the PXE file as script, therefore restoring the default
of enabling.

The fdt and kernel addresses were adopted from the vendor U-Boot and
they worked for my PXE GRUB setup. ramdisk_addr_r was chosen by me and
is untested.

That said, maybe the linux-amlogic people have some input here.

Cheers,
Andreas
