[PATCH v2 1/1] arm: sunxi: increase SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN

The current default of 0x400 for SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN is too small if any
additional drivers marked as DM_FLAG_PRE_RELOC are loaded before
relocation.
CONFIG_RSA=y which is needed for UEFI secure boot or for FIT image
verification loads the driver mod_exp_sw which has DM_FLAG_PRE_RELOC.
CONFIG_LOG=Y is another setting requiring additional early malloc
area, cf. log_init().
When running pine64-lts_defconfig with CONFIG_RSA=y and debug UART enabled
we see as output in main U-Boot
alloc_simple() alloc space exhausted
With this patch the default values of SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN is raised to 0x2000.
The default for SPL_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN on ARCH_SUNXI is explicitely set to
0x400 to avoid an increased usage of SRAM on elder SoCs.
