load_dtb() depends on arm_load_kernel() to figure out place
in RAM where it should be loaded, but it's not required for
arm_load_kernel() to work. Sometimes it's neccesary for
devices added with -device/device_add to be enumerated in
DTB as well, which's lead to [1] and surrounding commits to
add 2 more machine_done notifiers with non obvious ordering
to make dynamic sysbus devices initialization happen in
the right order.
However instead of moving whole arm_load_kernel() in to
machine_done, it's sufficient to move only load_dtb() into
virt_machine_done() notifier and remove ArmLoadKernelNotifier/
/PlatformBusFDTNotifierParams notifiers, which saves us ~90LOC
and simplifies code flow quite a bit.
Later would allow to consolidate DTB generation within one
function for 'mach-virt' board and make it reentrant so it
could generate updated DTB in device hotplug secenarios.
While at it rename load_dtb() to arm_load_dtb() since it's
public now.
Add additional field skip_dtb_autoload to struct arm_boot_info
to allow manual DTB load later in mach-virt and to avoid touching
all other boards to explicitly call arm_load_dtb().

This new C module will be used by ARM machine files to generate
platform bus node and their dynamic sysbus device tree nodes.
Dynamic sysbus device node addition is done in a machine init
done notifier. arm_register_platform_bus_fdt_creator does the
registration of this latter and is supposed to be called by
ARM machine files that support platform bus and their dynamic
sysbus. Addition of dynamic sysbus nodes is done only if the
user did not provide any dtb.
