[PATCH 1/7] arm-dt: Add ATAG_DEVTREE tag

From: Jeremy Kerr <jeremy.kerr at canonical.com>

We'd like to provide a pointer to the device tree blob through the atags
mechanism, so add a tag type containing a physical dtb pointer.

We won't need a parser for this, as we'll need to do the devtree parsing
a little earlier than other tags.
