[RFC 0/1] add support of `--initrd` for ELF-ARM kernels

Subject: [RFC 0/1] add support of `--initrd` for ELF-ARM kernels

We are developing an ELF-based kernel for ARM processor and would like
to use the flag "—initrd". An initial ramdisk simplifies the boot 
process, but as far as I know, it is currently not support by Qemu for
ARM processors. The flag is only available for pure Linux kernels.

This patch enables the flags for ELF kernels and creates a device tree
entry, which helps the kernel to find the address of the initial ramdisk.
