armv8: Skip PIE in SPL due to load alignment fault.
When PIE is enabled in start.S, u-boot/-spl use __rel_dyn_start
and _rel_dyn_end symbol to be loaded to and executed at a
different address than it was linked at.
u-boot-spl.lds is used in SPL build, but relocation information
section(.rela*) were discarded.
In line number 80 in arch/arm/cpu/armv8/u-boot-spl.lds
/DISCARD/ : { *(.rela*) }
If PIE enabled in SPL, __rel_dyn_start which is defined as
.rel_dyn_start in sections.c will be apended to the end of
.bss section.
In our ASPEED case, size of .bss section would let .rel_dyn_start
without 8-byte alignment, leading to alignment fault when
executing ldp instuction in pie_fix_loop.
