[U-Boot] [PATCH] ARM: tegra: allow passing cboot DTB to the kernel

From: Stephen Warren swarren@nvidia.com
Some users may wish to pass the cboot-supplied DTB to the booted kernel rather than having U-Boot load the DTB itself. To allow this, expose the address of the cboot-supplied DTB in environment variable $fdt_addr. At least when using extlinux.conf, if the user doesn't explicitly specify which DTB to pass to the kernel, U-Boot passes the DTB referred to by this variable.
