Currently, a 64-bit little-endian zImage.epapr won't boot in epapr mode,
as as we never return from platform_init.
Before entering C, we initialise our stack by setting r1 16 bytes below
the end of the _bss_stack:
stwu r0,-16(r1) /* establish a stack frame */
However, the called function will save the caller's lr in the caller's
frame's lr save area, at -16(r1) to -32(r1).
This means that writes to the fdt variable corrupt the saved link
register:
0000000020c06018 l O .bss 0000000000001000 _bss_stack
0000000020c07018 l O .bss 0000000000000008 fdt
This change allocates the minimum of 32 bytes for the base of the stack
instead.
