Sometimes, especially in a production system we may not want to
use a "smart bootloader" like u-boot to load kernel, ramdisk and
device tree from a filesystem on eMMC, but rather load the kernel
from a NAND partition and just run it as soon as we can, and in
this case it is convenient to have device tree compiled into the
kernel binary. Since this case is not limited to MMU-less systems,
let's support it for these which have MMU enabled too.

While at it, provide __dtb_start as a parameter to setup_vm() in
BUILTIN_DTB case, so we don't have to duplicate BUILTIN_DTB specific
processing in MMU-enabled and MMU-disabled versions of setup_vm().

Changes from v2:
* folded "RISC-V: simplify BUILTIN_DTB processing" patch
[http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-riscv/2021-January/004153.html]
Changes from v1:
* no direct initial_boot_params assignment
* skips the temporary mapping for DT if BUILTIN_DTB=y
