Hi Przemyslaw,

> Reduce the boot time of Odroid X2/U3 by disabling the memset
> at malloc init.
> 
> This was tested on Odroid X2.
> A quick test with checking gpio pin state using the oscilloscope.
> Boot time from start to bootcmd (change gpio state by memory write
> command):
> - ~228ms - before this change (arch memset enabled for .bss clear)
> - ~100ms - after this change
