[1/5][POWERPC] boot: prepare for zImage.kexec

This patch moves the initializations of prom variables to boot/prom.c
to allow it to be replaced for kexec.   Kexec does not care about
the stdout handle, but will care about the location of the device
tree and will search for RTAS.

It also checks if we stop trying to claim so that we print an error
instead of storing to address -1.
