It is not uncommon for a contemporary FDT to be larger than 64 KiB,
leading to failures loading the device tree from sysfs:

    qemu-system-aarch64: qemu_fdt_setprop: Couldn't set ...: FDT_ERR_NOSPACE

For reference, the largest arm64 DTB created from the Linux sources is
70 KiB large (93 KiB when built with symbols/fixup support).

I think we should probably give ourselves a bit more headroom,
then -- at least 256K.

The ppc boards actually define their own version of this constant:

#define FDT_MAX_SIZE            0x00100000

so I think we might as well just go with that in device_tree.c for
consistency.

thanks
