arm: Reduce the scope of lowlevel_init()
This function has grown into something of a monster. Some boards are setting up a console and DRAM here in SPL. This requires global_data which should be set up in one place (crt0.S). There is no need for SPL to use s_init() for anything since board_init_f() is called immediately afterwards. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
