commit d422c6c0644bccbb1ebeefffa51f35cec3019517 upstream.

When building xway_defconfig with clang:

arch/mips/lantiq/prom.c:82:23: error: array comparison always evaluates
to true [-Werror,-Wtautological-compare]
        else if (__dtb_start != __dtb_end)
                             ^
1 error generated.

These are not true arrays, they are linker defined symbols, which are
just addresses. Using the address of operator silences the warning
and does not change the resulting assembly with either clang/ld.lld
or gcc/ld (tested with diff + objdump -Dr). Do the same thing across
the entire MIPS subsystem to ensure there are no more warnings around
this type of comparison.

BCM6362 is a BMIPS4350 SoC which needs the same fixup as BCM6368 in order to
enable SMP support.

BCM3368 has a shared TLB which conflicts with current SMP support, so it must
be disabled for now.

<title>MIPS: store the appended dtb address in a variable</title>

Instead of rewriting the arguments to match the UHI spec, store the
address of a appended or UHI supplied dtb in fw_supplied_dtb.

That way the original bootloader arugments are kept intact while still
making the use of an appended dtb invisible for mach code.

Mach code can still find out if it is an appended dtb by comparing
fw_arg1 with fw_supplied_dtb.

This SoC is very similar to BCM63168 and Broadcom usually refers to them as
BCM63268.
Add BCM63268 and missing BCM63168 to device tree documentation.
