[PATCH v2 2/5] firmware: Add common FW_FDT_PATH compile-time option

Currently, only FW_PAYLOAD has mechanism to embed external
FDT using FW_PAYLOAD_FDT_PATH compile-time option.

This patch adds a common FW_FDT_PATH compile-time option to
embed external FDT for all OpenSBI firmwares (i.e FW_JUMP,
FW_PAYLOAD, and FW_DYNAMIC).

 Firmware Configuration and Compilation
 --------------------------------------
 
-All firmware types mandate the definition of the following compile time
-configuration parameter.
-
-* **FW_TEXT_ADDR** - Defines the address at which the previous booting stage
-  loads OpenSBI firmware.
+All firmware types support the following common compile time configuration
+parameters:
+
+* **FW_TEXT_ADDR** - Defines the execution address of the OpenSBI firmware.
+  This configuration parameter is mandatory.
+* **FW_FDT_PATH** - Path to an external flattened device tree binary file to
+  be embedded in the *.rodata* section of the final firmware. If this option
+  is not provided then the firmware will expect the FDT to be passed as an
+  argument by the prior booting stage.
+* **FW_FDT_PADDING** - Optional zero bytes padding to the embedded flattened
+  device tree binary file specified by **FW_FDT_PATH** option.
 
 Additionally, each firmware type as a set of type specific configuration
 parameters. Detailed information for each firmware type can be found in the
