[U-Boot] [PATCH v3 2/6] arm: mark save_boot_params_ret as a function

[Philipp Tomsich]

As no '.type' was set for save_boot_params_ret in start.S, binutils
did not track whether it was emitted as A32 or T32.  By properly
marking save_boot_params_ret as a potential function entry, we can
make sure that the compiler will insert the appropriate instructions
for branching to save_boot_params_ret both for call-sites emitted as
A32 and T32.

Changes in v3:
- tracked the root-cause why no interwork branch was emitted and fixed
  it using a '.type'-directive in start.S to mark save_boot_params_ret
  as a (possible) function-entry.

Changes in v2: None
