The BSS gets cleared during init so no need to initialize the mem_type
separately here and you can drop the change above AFAIK.

For this change sounds like a bug. Sorry I was not able to test
that with the hardware I have here. Good thing you have been able
to verify it with your hardware. If you drop the first part and
repost, please also feel free to add:
