So, this one is my fault.
It effectively comes down to "the space made available for the chosen
node" - meaning space for the initrd start/end address nodes (and
their associated strings), and now the address-cells node as well.
So we need "some extra space".
(The parameter is the "extra space" that will be dynamically added to
the DT - the static struct is separately accounted for if we're
creating an empty one.)
Since at the point this memory gets allocated we're already very close
to jumping into the kernel, it didn't feel worth trying to calculate
the exact number of bytes needed.
I agree it's ugly. Would you be OK with a centralised
GRUB_EFI_LINUX_FDT_EXTRA_SPACE #define?
