When doing an IPL normal the memory will not be zeroed and hence the
BSS section can have any value. We need to clear it by ourselves.

do we actually need these two instructions? If we should ever not have a
bss, things are already pretty shaky :D

(we could even enforce a BSS size > 0 in flat.lds)
