Add a new config option to allow u-boot to reuse the FDT provided by the previous stage bootloader when available.
On some boards the previous stage bootloader can populate platform-specific parts of the devicetree such as the memory node, this allows us to avoid hardcoding it in u-boot and instead determine it dynamically at runtime.
Signed-off-by: Caleb Connolly caleb.connolly@linaro.org --- This patch will improve generic support for Qualcomm boards by enabling us to configure the memory map at runtime rather than having hardcoded maps on a per-device basis. I've gone for this approach initially to try and avoid introducing board specific code where possible, but I'm happy to rework this into mach-snapdragon if that's preferred. --- base-commit: e65b5d35c9116485366bb08138043d51220551da
