[PATCH 4/5] arm: devtree: Read ATAGs structure from DT "/chosen/linux,atags" entry

From: Pali RohÃr
Date: Mon Jul 06 2015 - 16:27:14 EST


With this patch when linux kernel is compiled with ARM_ATAG_DTB_COMPAT it
reads ATAGs structure from "/chosen/linux,atags" entry and store it into
/proc/atags file. ATAGs structure is not parsed or evaluated, just kernel
exports it to userspace via procfs. It is needed for legacy userspace
application which expect some data from bootloader in /proc/atags file.
This patch keeps them running also on DT kernel if DT "/chosen/linux,atags"
entry exists.

TODO: add documentation
