The OpenBlocks AX3-4 has a non-DT bootloader.  It also comes with 1GB of
soldered on RAM, and a DIMM slot for expansion.

Unfortunately, atags_to_fdt() doesn't work in big-endian mode, so we see
the following failure when attempting to boot a big-endian kernel:

Fix this by setting a sane default (1 GB) in the dts file.

Also FYI, I put a temporary hack into my automated boot setup to use
fdtput to live-patch the openblocks DTB with 1G, and you can see that
openblocks is now passing boot test for big-endian:

Also FYI, I added mvebu_v7_defconfig + CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN=y to the
mix, so those should start showing up in subsequent boot tests also.
