I would appreciate if you would - before spending time and effort on actual implementation - try and discuss your ideas for such a far-reaching change. So far, I cannot even see which sort of benefit you expect - keep in mind that U-Boot does not use virtual memory, so initcall memory freed will remain dead and unusable. Would you please explain where you expect advantages from such an implementation?
