The initrd_start and initrd_end as set by FDT was overriding
the phys_initrd_start and phys_initrd_size set by the initrd=
kernel parameter.  This patch will ignore the initrd_start
and initrd_end set earlier if phys_initrd_start and
phys_initrd_size (as set by the initrd= parameter) are set.

Hi Ben

Since this is a fix, it is a good idea to put Fix somewhere in the
subject.  You should also try to say which patch broke it. Looking at
the git logs, i think it was 65939301acdb1e593fdb424bd356f0b9bc7ba5be
"arm: set initrd_start/initrd_end for fdt scan" which came from Rob
Herring <rob.herring@calxeda.com>. I added Rob to CC.
