At least arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc (Debian 8.3.0-2) does some funny
reordering with the result that the barebox header may no longer be
at the very start of the image.
This results e.g. in bootm not working for stm32 bareboxes, because
file_detect_type no longer detects them as valid barebox ARM images.

Steps to reproduce with current next:

$ make stm32mp1_defconfig
$ make
$ xxd -l64 -g1 images/start_stm32mp157c_dk2.pblb
00000000: 04 46 0d 46 16 46 00 00 01 90 8f e2 19 ff 2f e1  .F.F.F......../.
00000010: 00 f0 22 f8 fe e7 fe e7 fe e7 fe e7 fe e7 fe e7  ..".............
00000020: fe e7 fe e7 fe e7 fe e7 62 61 72 65 62 6f 78 00  ........barebox.
00000030: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 55 55 55 55 55 55 55 55  ........UUUUUUUU

Note how the new 8 bytes are not after the __barebox_arm_head as they should.
This leads to the barebox string being shifted from the
ARM_HEAD_MAGICWORD_OFFSET, where it's expected.

Could you take a look?
Thanks.
