[U-Boot] Use .data section in SPL ?

Hi.

I notice SPL is using .data section

u32 *boot_params_ptr = NULL; struct spl_image_info spl_image;

/* Define board data structure */ static bd_t bdata __attribute__ ((section(".data")));

If SPL is running on an execute-in-place device such NOR flash, .data section is not writable.

common/spl/spl_nor.c does not work.

Shall we ban global variables on SPL (and pre-relocation) ?

or

Shall we make .data section available?
