The code in arch/arm/kexec-zImage-arm.c currently enforces a hard limit
on the maximum size a dtb blob can occupy. This limit is set to 32k,
which is quite low for device tree blobs nowadays.
Get rid of this assumption, and calculate the added size dynamically.
For this, we need to slurp in the dtb file earlier in order to
determine its size, because the memory hole allocation for 'base'
takes this size into account.
For ATAGs, we keep the current value of 32k, which should in fact be
enough.
With this change in place, the 'DTB too large!' error message can go
away. Successfully tested on a AM335x board.

[s.neumann at raumfeld.com: Fix ATAGs case]
Reported-and-tested-by: Sven Neumann <s.neumann at raumfeld.com>
---
v2 includes a fixup from Sven Neumann for ATAGs driven boards.
The patch is in tested on a larger number of machines by now.
