I don't know what is maintainer's politics on this, but as a user of 
your board I don't really like that I will have to remember this strange 
number when I launch Highbank emulation. Have you considered adding an 
automatic upper limitation to user-defined ram_size?

Probably should be
if (load_image_targphys(sysboot_filename, 0xfff88000, 0x8000)<  0) {
and then you don't need "uint32_t filesize" at all.

You can use sysbus_create_simple() here (of course, if you didn't avoid 
it intentionally for some reason).
