[PATCH v1] riscv: fix reserved memory setup

Currently, RISC-V sets up reserved memory using the "early" copy of the
device tree. As a result, when trying to get a reserved memory region
using of_reserved_mem_lookup(), the pointer to reserved memory regions
is using the early, pre-virtual-memory address which causes a kernel
panic when trying to use the buffer's name:

 Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 00000000401c31ac

early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem() takes no arguments as it operates on
initial_boot_params, which is populated by early_init_dt_verify(). On
RISC-V, early_init_dt_verify() is called twice. Once, directly, in
setup_arch() if CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB is not enabled and once indirectly,
very early in the boot process, by parse_dtb() when it calls
early_init_dt_scan_nodes().

This first call uses dtb_early_va to set initial_boot_params, which is
not usable later in the boot process when
early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem() is called. On arm64 for example, the
corresponding call to early_init_dt_scan_nodes() uses fixmap addresses
and doesn't suffer the same fate.

Move early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem() further along the boot sequence,
after the direct call to early_init_dt_verify() in setup_arch() so that
the names use the correct virtual memory addresses. The above supposed
that CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB was not set, but should work equally in the case
where it is - unflatted_and_copy_device_tree() also updates
initial_boot_params.
