[U-Boot] [PATCH v1] armv8: spl: Call spl_relocate_stack_gd for ARMv8

As part of the startup process for boards using the SPL, we need to call spl_relocate_stack_gd. This is needed to set up malloc with its DRAM buffer.

Wouldn't that be clearer? tst x0, x0

I wonder how we could get away without this before?
