Ensure that the meminfo array is sanity checked before we pass the
memory to memblock.  This helps to ensure that memblock and meminfo
agree on the dimensions of memory, especially when more memory is
passed than the kernel can deal with.

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.
      Reported-by: Tixy &lt;tixy@yxit.co.uk&gt;
    - 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.

<content type='text'>
In preparation for adding device tree support, this patch consolidates
all of the atag-specific setup into a single function.

v5: - drop double printk("Machine; %s\n", ...); call.
    - leave copying boot_command_line in setup_arch() since it isn't
      atags specific.
v4: - adapt to the removal of lookup_machine_type()
    - break out dump of machine_desc table into dump_machine_table()
      because the device tree probe code will use it.
    - Add for_each_machine_desc() macro

This patch allows the provided CONFIG_CMDLINE to be concatenated
with the one provided by the boot loader. This is useful to
merge the static values defined in CONFIG_CMDLINE with the
boot loader's (possibly) more dynamic values, such as startup
reasons and more.

Add some basic empty infrastructure for DT support on ARM.

v5: - Fix off-by-one error in size calculation of initrd
    - Stop mucking with cmd_line, and load command line from dt into
      boot_command_line instead which matches the behaviour of ATAGS booting
v3: - moved cmd_line export and initrd setup to this patch to make the
      series bisectable.
    - switched to alloc_bootmem_align() for allocation when
      unflattening the device tree.  memblock_alloc() was not the
      right interface.

<title>crash_dump: export is_kdump_kernel to modules, consolidate elfcorehdr_addr, setup_elfcorehdr and saved_max_pfn</title>

<content type='text'>
The Xen PV drivers in a crashed HVM guest can not connect to the dom0
backend drivers because both frontend and backend drivers are still in
connected state.  To run the connection reset function only in case of a
crashdump, the is_kdump_kernel() function needs to be available for the PV
driver modules.

Consolidate elfcorehdr_addr, setup_elfcorehdr and saved_max_pfn into
kernel/crash_dump.c Also export elfcorehdr_addr to make is_kdump_kernel()
usable for modules.

Leave 'elfcorehdr' as early_param().  This changes powerpc from __setup()
to early_param().  It adds an address range check from x86 also on ia64
and powerpc.
