This patch allows an arch/ppc kernel to be booted by just passing 1 or 2
arguments to bootm.  It removes the getenv("disable_of") test that used
to be used for this purpose.

BTW, can someone please actually test this w/ a arch/powerpc kernel?
I've only got a lite5200b to play with, and it isn't ported yet.  :)

BBTW, considering that this is a u-boot patch; sorry for posting this
here linuxppc-dev instead of u-boot-users.
