The code in arch/arm/lib/crt0_64.S assumes __bss_end - __bss_start is a multiple of 8.
But that could probably be replaced by a proper call to memset fairly easily.

Because of the overlay, this affects .bss too.
The code in arch/arm/lib/crt0.S may or may not be configured to use memset. When it
isn't, it requires __bss_end - __bss_start to be a multiple of 4. Why does this not
always use memset?
