Add support for defining the usable RAM from ATAGs provided by the
Rockchip binary TPL loader. This allows us to automatically account
for necessary memory holes on RK3588 devices with 16GB of RAM or
more, as well as ensure we can use the full amount of RAM available.
In the event we can't cleanly read the ATAG values from RAM or are
not running an RK3588 board, simply fall back to the old method of
detecting the RAM.
Tested on Indiedroid Nova with 4GB and 16GB of RAM.

I believe this will not compile for non RK3588 because this function is
not defined.
There are a few ways to handle this:
- always compile atags.c but have ifdefs there with inline functions
returning -ENOTSUPP or something like that.

Do we really need the first bank to ends exactly at 0xf0000000? Or
should we rather make sure that it doesn't go into that space? (so
anything below that would be fine?). I assume this is the result of some
experiments, what did you learn from those boards?

This may result in out-of-bounds access. Indeed gd->bd->bi_dram is a
build-time allocated array of size CONFIG_NR_DRAM_BANKS.
So I would recommend printing an error message if t->u.ddr_mem.count is
bigger than CONFIG_NR_DRAM_BANKS. I assume we may want to still boot but
with less RAM in that case? If we do, then only loop for the min between
t->u.ddr_mem.count and CONFIG_NR_DRAM_BANKS.

This is incorrect, it may be offsetting up to 0x200000. If it's offset,
you need to remove it from the address size.

You may need to remove the 0x200000 offset here as well, e.g. with

Renaming tmp into end would probably also help figure out what it's

You can make this for-loop logic a bit more readable (well, to me :) ) with:

Side question, do gd->bd->bi_dram have to store banks in a specific
order (e.g. from lowest (0) to highest (0xfffffff) location in memory)
or can it be random? If the former, is Rockchip guaranteeing us that the
ATAGS will always be ordered properly or should we order them at runtime
too?
