It's only a waste if your application does not use RedBoot for
runtime services.  By default, your code will call functions in
RedBoot for such things as console I/O, network debug support,
GDB support, etc.  You can only reuse RedBoot's RAM section if
you are not using any of those (CYGSEM_HAL_USE_ROM_MONITOR == 0)
