Um... this is NOT what we discussed.

No.  This is not what I want to se.

Memory allocation in the inital ram has the global data at the top.

Please use something like

#define CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_OFFSET  (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_SIZE - GENERATED_GBL_DATA_SIZE)
#define CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_ADDR    (CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_ADDR + CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_OFFSET)

Best regards,
