LPAE provides support for memory banks with physical addresses of up
to 40 bits.

This patch adds a new atag, ATAG_MEM64, so that the Kernel can be
informed about memory that exists above the 4GB boundary.

NAK.  Any LPAE capable platform to come is, by definition, a new 
platform.  It therefore should be using DT upfront.
It's fine by me, one less patch to merge.
