Can you try fixing that with WEAK(s_init) in the lowlevel_init_gen3.S ?
I think that would be much better, if anyone needs to override the
function, then they can, otherwise empty WEAK function would be used.

Maybe it would be better to use imply BOARD_EARLY_INIT_F , and then
disable it on boards which don't need it (RZA1 and RZG2)

Look at the 'imply' keyword, that might be even better.

I think if you can start U-Boot on either core, then the reset function
should handle both, yes.
