Bug Description

When U-Boot loads a device-tree it makes fixups like adjusting the memory size before booting into Linux. When GRUB loads a device-tree these fixups are missing. On RISC-V the Linux kernel expects the property /chosen/boot-hartidproperty in the device-tree which is set during fixups.

There are two solutions to this:

Either always load the device-tree in U-Boot or call the EFI_DT_FIXUP_PROTOCOL implemented in U-Boot. Calling the protocol seems to be the better solution.
