Pull Exynos platform DT fix from Grant Likely:
"Device tree Exynos bug fix for v3.16-rc7
This bug fix has been brewing for a while. I hate sending it to you
so late, but I only got confirmation that it solves the problem this
past weekend. The diff looks big for a bug fix, but the majority of
it is only executed in the Exynos quirk case. Unfortunately it
required splitting early_init_dt_scan() in two and adding quirk
handling in the middle of it on ARM.
Exynos has buggy firmware that puts bad data into the memory node.
Commit 1c2f87c22566 ("ARM: Get rid of meminfo") exposed the bug by
dropping the artificial upper bound on the number of memory banks that
can be added. Exynos fails to boot after that commit. This branch
fixes it by splitting the early DT parse function and inserting a
fixup hook. Exynos uses the hook to correct the DT before parsing
memory regions"
