Ard Biesheuvel 24d7c494ce efi/arm-stub: Round up FDT allocation to mapping size
The FDT is mapped via a fixmap entry that is at least 2 MB in size and
2 MB aligned on 4 KB page size kernels.

On UEFI systems, the FDT allocation may share this 2 MB mapping with a
reserved region (or another memory region that we should never map),
unless we account for this in the size of the allocation (the alignment
is already 2 MB)

So instead of taking guesses at the needed space, simply allocate 2 MB
immediately. The allocation will be recorded as EFI_LOADER_DATA, and the
kernel only memblock_reserve()'s the actual size of the FDT, so the
unused space will be released back to the kernel.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
