Hello,

when I boot zImage with appended DT n900 in qemu
fdt_open_into() function called from file
arch/arm/boot/compressed/atags_to_fdt.c (in function
atags_to_fdt) always returns -FDT_ERR_NOSPACE.

It means that all ATAGS (including cmdline arguments) passed
by bootloader are ignored.

On real n900 device I see that booted DT version also ignore
cmdline arguments from bootloader. I cannot debug decompress
code on real device, but I think it is same problem as in
qemu.
Looks like this quick patch is fixing above problem:
