Why do you need this? Does the code get too long and enters exception handler space?

This patch presumes stack is right under GD, which is OK. But
CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN has not been used by powerpc. Presumption of
(CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN + GENERATED_GBL_DATA_SIZE) < CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE
may not be true. Would it be better to check@compiling time to make sure we
have enough init ram for the malloc len?
