Tobias Klauser 921d701e6f nios2: reserve boot memory for device tree
Make sure to reserve the boot memory for the flattened device tree.
Otherwise it might get overwritten, e.g. when initial_boot_params is
copied, leading to a corrupted FDT and a boot hang/crash:

  bootconsole [early0] enabled
  Early console on uart16650 initialized at 0xf8001600
  OF: fdt: Error -11 processing FDT
  Kernel panic - not syncing: setup_cpuinfo: No CPU found in devicetree!

  ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: setup_cpuinfo: No CPU found in devicetree!

Marek Vasut 4db2196d0c nios2: Fix unused variable warning
Fix the following compiler splat by adding __maybe_unused annotation to
the variable. Using this particular annotation has the least ugly impact
on the code compared to using ifdeffery.

arch/nios2/kernel/setup.c: In function 'nios2_boot_init':
arch/nios2/kernel/setup.c:107:7: warning: unused variable 'cmdline_passed' [-Wunused-variable]
  char cmdline_passed[COMMAND_LINE_SIZE] = { 0, };
