What would be the purpose of this in a boot loader? For Linux iot makes sense to free each and every byte which is no longer needed because applications running can really benefir from it. But in U-Boot? Please check the memory map of the running system. The memory regained will not even be usable by anybody... What sort of benefit do you expect?
