Currently, the memory containing DT is not reserved. Thus, that region
of memory can be reallocated or reused for other purposes. This may result
in corrupted DT for nommu virt board in Qemu. We may not face any issue
in kendryte as DT is embedded in the kernel image for that.

@Palmer This patch is applicable for v5.9 & before. This fix is already
part of the "RISC-V: Move DT mapping outof fixmap" patch from UEFI support
series. That's why, this patch doesn't need to go into for-next.

Thanks, this is on fixes.
