arm: Add devicetree fixup machine function
Commit 1c2f87c2 (ARM: 8025/1: Get rid of meminfo) dropped the upper bound on the number of memory banks that can be added as there was no technical need in the kernel. It turns out though, some bootloaders (specifically the arndale-octa exynos boards) may pass invalid memory information and rely on the kernel to not parse this data. This is a bug in the bootloader but we still need to work around this. Work around this by introducing a dt_fixup function. This function gets called before the flattened devicetree is scanned for memory and the like. In this fixup function for exynos, limit the maximum number of memory regions in the devicetree.
