So I checked with folks working on the HS variant and what you have for
AM437x is just fine. The secure runtime uses a different SRAM bank and
even if there is a need to use the GP SRAM, the space will first be
carved using gen_pool APIs on Linux. Only requirement from secure
runtime software is physically contiguous area - which I think
gen_pool_alloc() guarantees.
