[PATCH] [v3] powerpc/4xx: work around CHIP11 errata in a more PAGE_SIZE-friendly way

[Hollis Blanchard]

The current CHIP11 errata truncates the device tree memory node, and subtracts
(hardcoded) 4096 bytes. This breaks kernels with larger PAGE_SIZE, since the
bootmem allocator assumes that total memory is a multiple of PAGE_SIZE.

Instead, use a device tree memory reservation to reserve only the 256 bytes
actually affected by the errata, leaving the total memory size unaltered.

Changes from v2:
- David pointed out I'd duplicated the fdt_add_mem_rsv() prototype, and that
  4xx.c should directly include libfdt/libfdt.h instead.

Using large pages results in a huge performance improvement for KVM, and this
patch is required to make Ilya's large page patch work. David and/or Josh,
please apply.
