Difference is that uboot.srec has setup base addr to main memory (run from ram). uboot-s.srec
has small part of the code at the beggining which do relocation to the same base addr in main
memory. This file is for usage with flash memory (jump on base addr, run relocation from flash, copy
to ram, jump to base addr in ram, run u-boot from ram). I hope it is more clear than before.
