Subject: [PATCH 02/20] mips: lantiq: copy built-in DTB out of init section

From: Rob Herring <robh@...nel.org>

The existing code is buggy because built-in DTBs are in init memory.
Fix this by using the unflatten_and_copy_device_tree function.

This removes all accesses to FDT header data by the arch code.
