[PATCH] Documentation: devicetree: list automatic boot argument fixups

[Johannes Zink]

Barebox automatically fixes up several entries to the root and
chosen-node of the devicetree passed to the booted system.

These entries contain information about the hardware, reset source
and the barebox version string.

Add documentation on how to query these information from the booted
linux system.

+ * machine compatible (if available)
+
+In the ``chosen``-node barebox fixes up
+
+ * barebox-version
+ * reset-source
+ * reset-source-instance (if available)
+ * reset-source-device (phandle, only if available)
