Create an additional memory area in the linker-script and assign the
.bss (.bss.*) C-sections to this area. Take the given
section-definitions as templates. Make sure to enable/setup the
memory-interface before writing zeros to bss during startup.

I do not fully understand you question. Maybe the access to the external
SDRAM will be slower than internal SRAM. Check the datasheet and the
RAM-interface setup (wait-states, bus-width etc.).
For performace reasons it might be better keep the "standard" bss in
internal SRAM end use the extra sections for huge arrays in external RAM
(see gcc-manual variable attribute section).
