Commit 65939301acdb (arm: set initrd_start/initrd_end for fdt scan)
caused the FDT initrd_start and initrd_end to override the
phys_initrd_start and phys_initrd_size set by the initrd= kernel
parameter.  With this patch initrd_start and initrd_end will be
overridden if phys_initrd_start and phys_initrd_size are set by the
kernel initrd= parameter.

I'd really like to see phys_initrd_* removed, but that would be more
invasive, so:

Acked-by: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org>

Please submit to Russell's patch system and mark for stable. I don't
think there is time before 3.13 is released.
