Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] of: create of_root if no dtb provided
When enabling CONFIG_OF on a platform where of_root is not populated by
firmware, we end up without a root node. In order to apply overlays and
create subnodes of the root node, we need one. Create this root node
by unflattening an empty builtin dtb.
If firmware provides a flattened device tree (FDT) then the FDT is
unflattened via setup_arch(). Otherwise, setup_of() which is called
immediately after setup_arch(), and will create the default root node
if it does not exist.

Please wait for test results from Clement before accepting.
Changes since version 2:
- change of __dtb_empty_root_* from "void *" to "uint8_t []"
Changes since version 1:
- refresh for 6.2-rc1
- update Signed-off-by
- fix typo in of_fdt.h: s/of_setup/setup_of
- unflatten_device_tree(): validate size in header field dtb_empty_root
that will be used to copy dtb_empty_root
- add Kconfig option to manually select CONFIG_OF_EARLY_FLATTREE
