Most architectures use the same implementation. Collapse the common ones

<title>of: Specify initrd location using 64-bit</title>

<id>374d5c9964c10373ba39bbe934f4262eb87d7114</id>
<content type='text'>
On some PAE architectures, the entire range of physical memory could reside
outside the 32-bit limit.  These systems need the ability to specify the
initrd location using 64-bit numbers.

This patch globally modifies the early_init_dt_setup_initrd_arch() function to
use 64-bit numbers instead of the current unsigned long.

There has been quite a bit of debate about whether to use u64 or phys_addr_t.
It was concluded to stick to u64 to be consistent with rest of the device
tree code. As summarized by Geert, "The address to load the initrd is decided
by the bootloader/user and set at that point later in time. The dtb should not
be tied to the kernel you are booting"

More details on the discussion can be found here:

The only function of memblock_analyze() is now allowing resize of
memblock region arrays.  Rename it to memblock_allow_resize() and
update its users.

* The following users remain the same other than renaming.

  arm/mm/init.c::arm_memblock_init()
  microblaze/kernel/prom.c::early_init_devtree()
  powerpc/kernel/prom.c::early_init_devtree()
  openrisc/kernel/prom.c::early_init_devtree()
  sh/mm/init.c::paging_init()
  sparc/mm/init_64.c::paging_init()
  unicore32/mm/init.c::uc32_memblock_init()

* In the following users, analyze was used to update total size which
  is no longer necessary.

  powerpc/kernel/machine_kexec.c::reserve_crashkernel()
  powerpc/kernel/prom.c::early_init_devtree()
  powerpc/mm/init_32.c::MMU_init()
  powerpc/mm/tlb_nohash.c::__early_init_mmu()  
  powerpc/platforms/ps3/mm.c::ps3_mm_add_memory()
  powerpc/platforms/embedded6xx/wii.c::wii_memory_fixups()
  sh/kernel/machine_kexec.c::reserve_crashkernel()

* x86/kernel/e820.c::memblock_x86_fill() was directly setting
  memblock_can_resize before populating memblock and calling analyze
  afterwards.  Call memblock_allow_resize() before start populating.

memblock_can_resize is now static inside memblock.c.

memblock_init() initializes arrays for regions and memblock itself;
however, all these can be done with struct initializers and
memblock_init() can be removed.  This patch kills memblock_init() and
initializes memblock with struct initializer.

The only difference is that the first dummy entries don't have .nid
set to MAX_NUMNODES initially.  This doesn't cause any behavior
difference.

This patch drops the reference to a global 'cmd_line' variable from
early_init_dt_scan_chosen, and instead passes the pointer to the command
line string via the *data argument.  Each architecture does something
slightly different with the initial command line, so it makes sense for
the architecture to be able to specify the variable name.
