PATCH 1/1 Revert "Revert "fdt_support: Use CONFIG_NR_DRAM_BANKS if defined""

This reverts commit 2a1f4f1758b55589395f90f583aacb07ae6fcafe.

Maybe there's a better way to fix this, but reverting this got odroid-xu4 booting agian:

Eh, this is a revert to a "revert" commit?

Quoted 3 lines

Maybe there's a better way to fix this, but reverting this got odroid-xu4 booting agian:

Have we found out the real root cause? There must be a reason in the original fix, then followed by another reasonable "revert", and now the "revert" will be reverted again?

https://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2018-August/338090.html

It seems the working best option so far is to switch CONFIG_NR_DRAM_BANKS to to Kconfig:
