fdt: Set kernaddr if fdt indicates a kernel is present
If kernel-offset is specified in the fdt, set an environment variable
so that scripts can access the attached kernel.
This can be used by a packaging program to tell U-Boot about a kernel
that has been downloaded alongside U-Boot. The value in the fdt is
the offset of the kernel from the start of the U-Boot image, so we can
find it just by adding CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE.
It is then fairly easy to put something like this in the environment
variables in the board header file:
"if test ${kernaddr} != \"\"; then "\
"echo \"Using bundled kernel\"; "\
"bootm ${kernaddr};" \
"fi; "\
/* rest of boot sequence follows here */
