Currently any device tree passed with -dtb option in QEMU, was ignored
by the PowerNV code.
Read and pass the passed -dtb to the kernel, thus enabling easier
debugging with custom DTBs.
The existing behaviour when -dtb is 'not' passed, is preserved as-is.
But when a '-dtb' is passed, it completely overrides any dtb nodes or
changes QEMU might have done, such as '-append' arguments to the kernel
(which are mentioned in /chosen/bootargs in the dtb), hence add warning
when -dtb is being used

Changelog
===========
v3:
+ use 'load_device_tree' to read the device tree, instead of
g_file_get_contents
+ tested that passed dtb does NOT get ignored on system_reset
v2:
+ move reading dtb and warning to pnv_init
v1:
+ use 'g_file_get_contents' and add check for -append & -dtb as suggested by
Daniel
