This causes widespread breakage due to the operation of the low-level code
in crt0.S and cro0_64.S for ARM at least.

The fix is not complicated but it seems safer to revert this for now.

This reverts commit 2afddae07523f23f77acd066ad1719f53d289f98.

Applied to u-boot/master, thanks!

Might it be useful to align gd on the cache line boundary?

We could - I'm not sure how that would help?
