linux,sml-base holds the address of a buffer with the TPM log. This
buffer may become invalid after a kexec. To avoid accessing an invalid
address or corrupted buffer, embed the whole TPM log in the device tree
property linux,sml-log. This helps to protect the log since it is
properly carried across a kexec soft reboot with both of the kexec
syscalls.

Avoid having the firmware ingest the whole TPM log when calling
prom_setprop but only create the linux,sml-log property as a place holder.
Insert the actual TPM log during the tree flattening phase.

You can't cast a u64 into a pointer. If sml_base is an address, it must
be declared as an unsigned long.

Build with pmac32_defconfig :

    CC      arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_init.o
arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_init.c: In function 'scan_dt_build_struct':
arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_init.c:2663:38: error: cast to pointer from

Next round will have this block under #ifdef CONFIG_PPC64.

Thanks.
