Albert Ou 922b0375fc riscv: Fix memblock reservation for device tree blob
This fixes an error with how the FDT blob is reserved in memblock.
An incorrect physical address calculation exposed the FDT header to
unintended corruption, which typically manifested with of_fdt_raw_init()
faulting during late boot after fdt_totalsize() returned a wrong value.
Systems with smaller physical memory sizes more frequently trigger this
issue, as the kernel is more likely to allocate from the DMA32 zone
where bbl places the DTB after the kernel image.

Commit 671f9a3e2e ("RISC-V: Setup initial page tables in two stages")
changed the mapping of the DTB to reside in the fixmap area.
Consequently, early_init_fdt_reserve_self() cannot be used anymore in
setup_bootmem() since it relies on __pa() to derive a physical address,
which does not work with dtb_early_va that is no longer a valid kernel
logical address.

The reserved[0x1] region shows the effect of the pointer underflow
resulting from the __pa(initial_boot_params) offset subtraction:

[    0.000000] MEMBLOCK configuration:
[    0.000000]  memory size = 0x000000001fe00000 reserved size = 0x0000000000a2e514
[    0.000000]  memory.cnt  = 0x1
[    0.000000]  memory[0x0]     [0x0000000080200000-0x000000009fffffff], 0x000000001fe00000 bytes flags: 0x0
[    0.000000]  reserved.cnt  = 0x2

With the fix applied:
