Move the definition of malloc pool size of the decompressor to
a single place. This value will be exposed later for kexec_file loader.

This says "locate _malloc_size in a literal pool somewhere, and load it
using a PC-relative offset".  Are you sure that the literal pool is
sensibly located?

Would it be better to use a definition for this?

I've followed ZRELADDR way. I think both values should be handled the
same way (it makes it easier to comprehend IMHO). Is there any reason
not to?  Should I change ZRELADDR for v2 too?

There's a good reason.  ZRELADDR can be a constant that does not fit
into the ARMs immediate constants (8 bits of significant data plus
a multiple of a 2-bit shift), whereas the size of the malloc space
is guaranteed to fit.  So, ZRELADDR has to use a literal load.
This doesn't.

Indeed this is how TEXT_OFFSET works. Done.
