Hi,

It is a V2, rebased on master branch, for the untitled serie
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/list/?series=152226

This serie now include the previous patch:
[U-Boot,v3] board_f.c: Insure gd->new_bootstage alignment
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1201452/

After this first correction, I remove the stm32mp1 workaround
as the issue of bootstage alignment is solved.

The 4th patch is a complete solution to alignment
(proposed in comment 5 of
 http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1201452/#2327366)
I always align the reserved memory to 16 bytes with a new function
reserve_sp().

This patch causes an issue on ARM 32 bits, as the relocated gd pointer
is not initialized with gd->new_gd as expected in reserve_global_data()
but is hard-coded with
  relocated gd = gd->bd - GD_SIZE
  {with GD_SIZE = sizeof(struct global_data)}

This issue is solved with the 3rd patch of the serie
  arm: set the relocated gd with gd->new_gd

Only tested on STM32MP157C-EV1 board (ARM32 architecture).
