In case the DTB provided by the bootloader/BootROM is before the kernel
image or outside /memory, we won't be able to access it through the
linear mapping, and get a segfault on setup_arch(). Currently OpenSBI
relocates DTB but that's not always the case (e.g. if FW_JUMP_FDT_ADDR
is not specified), and it's also not the most portable approach since
the default FW_JUMP_FDT_ADDR of the generic platform relocates the DTB
at a specific offset that may not be available. To avoid this situation
copy DTB so that it's visible through the linear mapping.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
