This adds support for a new environment variable called 'fdtcontroladdr'. If
defined, the hex address is used as the address of the control fdt for U-Boot.
Note: I have not changed CONFIG_PRAM section as I already have an
outstanding patch on that.

You cannot use both of these options at the same time.
+If you wish to put the fdt at a different address in memory, you can
+define the "fdtcontroladdr" environment variable. This is the hex
+address of the fdt binary blob, and will override either of the options.
+Be aware that this environment variable is checked prior to relocation,
+when only the compiled-in environment is available. Therefore it is not
+possible to define this variable in the saved SPI/NAND flash
+environment, for example (it will be ignored).

+#define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS "fdtcontroladdr=10000\0"
