Call this function unconditionally so that we can populate an empty DTB on platforms that don't boot with a firmware provided or builtin DTB. When ACPI is in use, unflatten_device_tree() ignores the 'initial_boot_params' pointer so the live DT on those systems won't be whatever that's pointing to. Similarly, when kexec copies the DT data the previous kernel to the new one on ACPI systems, of_kexec_alloc_and_setup_fdt() will ignore the live DT (the empty root one) and copy the 'initial_boot_params' data.
