I doubt the stack_setup() was defective before:
 we load the current location of _start and compare against destination
 of relocate_code(). If we are already there we shoud skip the
 relocation and jump over to clear_bss. Before the clear_bss was also skipped.

Dear Albert,
(or whoever works with armv7 currently)

However I doubt there is another issue when CONFIG_PRELOADER is not set!
Then the bss will never be setup, is that correct?

That is correct and had to be fixed indeed. Thanks!
