[PATCH 3/3] ARM: rockchip: pack the device tree passed to TF-A and OP-TEE

rockchip_create_optee_fdt() builds a device tree with just the memory
nodes, but fdt_create_empty_tree() sets its totalsize to the size of the
whole scratch buffer, i.e. CONFIG_ARCH_ROCKCHIP_ATF_FDT_SIZE (384 KiB).

TF-A and OP-TEE both call fdt_open_into() on the device tree, which
copies totalsize bytes regardless of the actual content. TF-A does this
with the MMU disabled and OP-TEE through an uncached mapping. On an
RK3588 this takes 185 ms in TF-A and another 182 ms in OP-TEE.

Pack the device tree so that totalsize matches its content. OP-TEE can
still expand it in place, the scratch buffer keeps its size.
