arm/dt: probe for platforms via the device tree
If a dtb is passed to the kernel then the kernel needs to iterate
through compiled-in mdescs looking for one that matches and move the
dtb data to a safe location before it gets accidentally overwritten by
the kernel.
This patch creates a new function, setup_machine_fdt() which is
analogous to the setup_machine_atags() created in the previous patch.
It does all the early setup needed to use a device tree machine
description.
v5: - Print warning with neither dtb nor atags are passed to the kernel
- Fix bug in setting of __machine_arch_type to the selected machine,
not just the last machine in the list.

- Copy command line directly into boot_command_line instead of cmd_line
v4: - Dump some output when a matching machine_desc cannot be found
v3: - Added processing of reserved list.
- Backed out the v2 change that copied instead of reserved the
dtb. dtb is reserved again and the real problem was fixed by
using alloc_bootmem_align() for early allocation of RAM for
unflattening the tree.
- Moved cmd_line and initrd changes to earlier patch to make series
bisectable.
v2: Changed to save the dtb by copying into an allocated buffer.
- Since the dtb will very likely be passed in the first 16k of ram
where the interrupt vectors live, memblock_reserve() is
insufficient to protect the dtb data.
