[U-Boot] [PATCH] ARM: Respect CONFIG_SPL_STACK define in lowlevel_init.S

The SPL and U-Boot proper may use different initial stack
locations, which are configured via CONFIG_SPL_STACK and
CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_ADDR defines. The lowlevel_init.S
code needs to handle this in the same way as crt0.S

Without this fix, setting the U-Boot stack location to some
place, which is not safely accessible by the SPL (such as
the DRAM), causes a very early SPL deadlock.
