PATCH v3 1/1 x86: zImage: Pass working device tree data to the kernel

On x86 platforms, U-Boot does not pass Device Tree data to the kernel. This prevents the kernel from using FDT loaded by U-Boot.

Read the working FDT address from the "fdtaddr" environment variable and add a copy of the FDT data to the kernel setup_data list.

Sorry to mention that I added "#include <linux/libfdt.h>" here to fix build error seen on several x86 boards during a buildman testing. Changed applied to u-boot-x86.
