Use "else".

Usually the heap grows upwards (or more accurately these days, a
predefined area is given to malloc to allocate however it wants,
assuming you haven't substituted some simple allocator) and the stack
grows downwards (again ideally within a defined area).

I'd just remove the language about growing.  It makes it ambiguous
whether the addresses you provide are the start or the end of the range.

Please find some way for this RCW modification to happen automatically
as part of the build process for NAND targets.

Could you describe what is being changed in the RCW?

PBI should not be initializing DDR -- only SRAM.

Can you factor these out into a non-SPL-specific file?

NACK

You cannot change the stack pointer behind the compiler's back.

Why don't you just pass CONFIG_SPL_GD_ADDR as the argument to
board_init_r() instead of passing NULL and then setting it here?

The SPL was executing in SRAM from the beginning.  This message is not
an appropriate way to say "I've initialized the DDR controller and done
nothing  with it so far".
