When riscv_load_firmware() loads an ELF, the ELF segment addresses are
used, not the passed-in firmware_load_addr. The machine models assume
the firmware entry point is what they provided for firmware_load_addr,
and use that address to generate the boot ROM, so if the ELF is linked
at any other address, the boot ROM will jump to empty memory.
Pass back the ELF entry point to use when generating the boot ROM, so
the boot ROM can jump to firmware loaded anywhere in RAM. For example,
on the virt machine, this allows using an OpenSBI fw_dynamic.elf built
with FW_TEXT_START values other than 0x80000000.

The microchip_icicle_kit, sifive_u, spike and virt boards are now doing
the same steps when '-kernel' is used:
- execute load_kernel()
- load init_rd()
- write kernel_cmdline
Let's fold everything inside riscv_load_kernel() to avoid code
repetition. To not change the behavior of boards that aren't calling
riscv_load_init(), add an 'load_initrd' flag to riscv_load_kernel() and
allow these boards to opt out from initrd loading.

Next patch will move all calls to riscv_load_initrd() to
riscv_load_kernel(). Machines that want to load initrd will be able to
do via an extra flag to riscv_load_kernel().
This change will expose a sign-extend behavior that is happening in
load_elf_ram_sym() when running 32 bit guests [1]. This is currently
obscured by the fact that riscv_load_initrd() is using the return of
riscv_load_kernel(), defined as target_ulong, and this return type will
crop the higher 32 bits that would be padded with 1s by the sign
extension when running in 32 bit targets. The changes to be done will
force riscv_load_initrd() to use an uint64_t instead, exposing it to the
padding when dealing with 32 bit CPUs.
There is a discussion about whether load_elf_ram_sym() should or should
not sign extend the value returned by 'lowaddr'. What we can do is to
prevent the behavior change that the next patch will end up doing.
riscv_load_initrd() wasn't dealing with 64 bit kernel entries when
running 32 bit CPUs, and we want to keep it that way.
One way of doing it is to use target_ulong in 'kernel_entry' in
riscv_load_kernel() and rely on the fact that this var will not be sign
extended for 32 bit targets. Another way is to explictly clear the
higher 32 bits when running 32 bit CPUs for all possibilities of
kernel_entry.
We opted for the later. This will allow us to be clear about the design
choices made in the function, while also allowing us to add a small
comment about what load_elf_ram_sym() is doing. With this change, the
consolation patch can do its job without worrying about unintended
behavioral changes.

As it is now, riscv_compute_fdt_addr() is receiving a dram_base, a
mem_size (which is defaulted to MachineState::ram_size in all boards)
and the FDT pointer. And it makes a very important assumption: the DRAM
interval dram_base + mem_size is contiguous. This is indeed the case for
most boards that use a FDT.
The Icicle Kit board works with 2 distinct RAM banks that are separated
by a gap. We have a lower bank with 1GiB size, a gap follows, then at
64GiB the high memory starts. MachineClass::default_ram_size for this
board is set to 1.5Gb, and machine_init() is enforcing it as minimal RAM
size, meaning that there we'll always have at least 512 MiB in the Hi
RAM area.
Using riscv_compute_fdt_addr() in this board is weird because not only
the board has sparse RAM, and it's calling it using the base address of
the Lo RAM area, but it's also using a mem_size that we have guarantees
that it will go up to the Hi RAM. All the function assumptions doesn't
work for this board.
In fact, what makes the function works at all in this case is a
coincidence. Commit 1a475d39ef introduced a 3GB boundary for the FDT,
down from 4Gb, that is enforced if dram_base is lower than 3072 MiB. For
the Icicle Kit board, memmap[MICROCHIP_PFSOC_DRAM_LO].base is 0x80000000
(2 Gb) and it has a 1Gb size, so it will fall in the conditions to put
the FDT under a 3Gb address, which happens to be exactly at the end of
DRAM_LO. If the base address of the Lo area started later than 3Gb this
function would be unusable by the board. Changing any assumptions inside
riscv_compute_fdt_addr() can also break it by accident as well.
Let's change riscv_compute_fdt_addr() semantics to be appropriate to the
Icicle Kit board and for future boards that might have sparse RAM
topologies to worry about:
- relieve the condition that the dram_base + mem_size area is contiguous,
since this is already not the case today;
- receive an extra 'dram_size' size attribute that refers to a contiguous
RAM block that the board wants the FDT to reside on.
Together with 'mem_size' and 'fdt', which are now now being consumed by a
MachineState pointer, we're able to make clear assumptions based on the
DRAM block and total mem_size available to ensure that the FDT will be put
in a valid RAM address.

A common trend in other archs is to calculate the fdt address, which is
usually straightforward, and then calling a function that loads the
fdt/dtb by using that address.
riscv_load_fdt() is doing a bit too much in comparison. It's calculating
the fdt address via an elaborated heuristic to put the FDT at the bottom
of DRAM, and "bottom of DRAM" will vary across boards and
configurations, then it's actually loading the fdt, and finally it's
returning the fdt address used to the caller.
Reduce the existing complexity of riscv_load_fdt() by splitting its code
into a new function, riscv_compute_fdt_addr(), that will take care of
all fdt address logic. riscv_load_fdt() can then be a simple function
that just loads a fdt at the given fdt address.
We're also taken the opportunity to clarify the intentions and
assumptions made by these functions. riscv_load_fdt() is now receiving a
hwaddr as fdt_addr because there is no restriction of having to load the
fdt in higher addresses that doesn't fit in an uint32_t.

riscv_load_initrd() returns the initrd end addr while also writing a
'start' var to mark the addr start. These informations are being used
just to write the initrd FDT node. Every existing caller of
riscv_load_initrd() is writing the FDT in the same manner.
We can simplify things by writing the FDT inside riscv_load_initrd(),
sparing callers from having to manage start/end addrs to write the FDT
themselves.
An 'if (fdt)' check is already inserted at the end of the function
because we'll end up using it later on with other boards that doesn´t
have a FDT.

introduce a new riscv_find_firmware() to implement the first half
part of the work done in riscv_find_and_load_firmware().
This new API is helpful for machine that wants to know the final
chosen firmware file name but does not want to load it.

Some boards are duplicating the 'riscv_find_and_load_firmware' call
because the 32 and 64 bits images have different names. Create
a function to handle this detail instead of hardcoding it in the boards.
Ideally we would bake this logic inside riscv_find_and_load_firmware(),
or even create a riscv_load_default_firmware(), but at this moment we
cannot infer whether the machine is running 32 or 64 bits without
accessing RISCVHartArrayState, which in turn can't be accessed via the
common code from boot.c. In the end we would exchange 'firmware_name'
for a flag with riscv_is_32bit(), which isn't much better than what we
already have today.

To boot S-mode firmware payload like EDK2 from persistent
flash storage, qemu needs to pass the flash address as the
next_addr in fw_dynamic_info to the opensbi.
When both -kernel and -pflash options are provided in command line,
the kernel (and initrd if -initrd) will be copied to fw_cfg table.
The S-mode FW will load the kernel/initrd from fw_cfg table.
If only pflash is given but not -kernel, then it is the job of
of the S-mode firmware to locate and load the kernel.
In either case, update the kernel_entry with the flash address
so that the opensbi can jump to the entry point of the S-mode
firmware.
