[PATCH 3/3] powerpc/44x: boot wrapper: allow kernel to load into non-zero address

From: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy at linux.vnet.ibm.com>

For AMP, different kernel instances load into separate memory regions.
Read the start of memory from the device tree and limit the memory to what's
specified in the device tree.
