Subject: ARM: multi_v7_defconfig: enable ARM_ATAG_DTB_COMPAT
From: Olof Johansson <olof@xxxxxxxxx>
commit a0396b9bd5a4a7baf598b60d2ca53c605c440a42 upstream.
Without this, legacy platforms that can boot with a multiplatform
kernel but that need the DTB to be appended, won't have a way to pass
firmware-set bootargs to the kernel.
This is needed to boot multi_v7_defconfig on snowball, for instance.
