+ Some old bootloaders can't be updated to a DTB capable one, yet
+ they provide ATAGs with memory configuration, the ramdisk address,
+ the kernel cmdline string, etc. Such information is dynamically
+ provided by the bootloader and can't always be stored in a static
+ DTB. To allow a device tree enabled kernel to be used with such
+ bootloaders, this option allows zImage to extract the information
+ from the ATAG list and store it at run time into the appended DTB.
