There is an internal function which actually copies the .dtb from a
partition on the eMMC to SDRAM before handing control to the kernel. I
forgot to set the proper size to be used after manipulating the command
line (since the command line size changed the copy routine should now
copy the updated size and should discard the old size).

libfdt was properly changing the size inside the blob, but I did not use
the updated size while copying the blob from eMMC to SDRAM.
