API: Use stack pointer as API signature search hint in the glue layer.
De-hardcode range in RAM we search for the API signature. Instead use the stack pointer as a hint to narrow down the range in which the signature could reside (it is malloc'ed on the U-Boot heap, and is hoped to remain in some proximity from stack area). Adjust PowerPC code in API demo to the new scheme. Signed-off-by: Rafal Czubak <rcz@semihalf.com> Signed-off-by: Rafal Jaworowski <raj@semihalf.com>
