This is only a patch to test if BSS was accessed in any function in init
function array!
DO NOT APPLY TO MAINLINE!
To run the test adopt the bss_mirror value to point somwhere in RAM with
sufficient space!
A step by step guide is like this:
* apply the patch
* adopt bss_mirror in arch/arm/lib/board.c:board_init_f()
* build and run like always
* search for something like: 'BSS got corrupted after init_fnc @ 0x20100478'
after banner
* use objdump to search the symbol
