I don't know if this is right.  Take the example of am335x + booting
from a FAT fs image.  We'll need early malloc prior to DDR being
available, so the tiny space (1-2kb).  But once DDR is up we need a more
complete malloc so that we can use FAT.  I don't have the size handy but
I'm going to guess that (a) it's bigger than 1-2kb (b) bigger than we
can squeeze into SRAM.
