[U-Boot] [PATCH 2/3] x86: Don't copy the cpu_call64() function to a hardcoded address

Before jumping to 64-bit U-Boot proper, SPL copies the cpu_call64()
function to a hardcoded address 0x3000000. This can have potential
conflicts with application usage. Switch the destination address
to be allocated from the heap to avoid such risk.
