I would like to do it but it is not easy to use sizeof because there are 
some dependencies in macros in common.h(lines 193-201) because I am 
using CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_OFFSET for monitor/malloc areas.

The best will be to be able to generate this value in lib/asm-offsets.c

Not sure if you are ok with it.

         return 0;
  }
