[PATCH] powerpc: Don't overwrite flat device tree with kdump kernel
It's possible for prom_init to allocate the flat device tree inside the
kdump crash kernel region. If this happens, when we load the kdump kernel we
overwrite the flattened device tree, which is bad.
We could make prom_init try and avoid allocating inside the crash kernel
region, but then we run into issues if the crash kernel region uses all the
space inside the RMO. The easiest solution is to move the flat device tree
once we're running in the kernel.
