Is it possible to have a version of this that frees up the FAT memory when it's not needed/used?

It might be famous last words- but I don't envision anyone using all 16MB of flash storage for their application. Might be a we'll-cross-that-bridge-when-we-come-to-it kinda thing.

SCRATCH_X(rwx) : ORIGIN = 0x20040000, LENGTH = 4k
