I don't recall the "coreboot runs only very briefly." However, once you do have ram the question is where does one get the ram? I think you are trivializing the problem -- not impossible, but it's definitely not just malloc().
I think we have a malloc() that just increments a free_ram_pointer. Whether this design is appropriate is beyond the scope of the CBFS problem. The malloc question belongs in coreboot core.
