When CONFIG_RODATA_FULL_DEFAULT_ENABLED=y, passing "rodata=on" on the
kernel command-line (rather than "rodata=full") should turn off the
"full" behaviour, leaving writable linear aliases of read-only kernel
memory. Unfortunately, the option has no effect in this situation and
the only way to disable the "rodata=full" behaviour is to disable rodata
protection entirely by passing "rodata=off".
Fix this by parsing the "on" and "off" options in the arch code,
additionally enforcing that 'rodata_full' cannot be set without also
setting 'rodata_enabled', allowing us to simplify a couple of checks
in the process.

On arm64, "rodata=full" has been suppored (but not documented) since
commit:
c55191e96caa9d78 ("arm64: mm: apply r/o permissions of VM areas to its linear alias as well")
As it's necessary to determine the rodata configuration early during
boot, arm64 has an early_param() handler for this, whereas init/main.c
has a __setup() handler which is run later.
Unfortunately, this split meant that since commit:
f9a40b0890658330 ("init/main.c: return 1 from handled __setup() functions")
... passing "rodata=full" would result in a spurious warning from the
__setup() handler (though RO permissions would be configured
appropriately).
Further, "rodata=full" has been broken since commit:
0d6ea3ac94ca77c5 ("lib/kstrtox.c: add "false"/"true" support to kstrtobool()")
... which caused strtobool() to parse "full" as false (in addition to
many other values not documented for the "rodata=" kernel parameter.
This patch fixes this breakage by:
* Moving the core parameter parser to an __early_param(), such that it
is available early.
* Adding an (optional) arch hook which arm64 can use to parse "full".
* Updating the documentation to mention that "full" is valid for arm64.
* Having the core parameter parser handle "on" and "off" explicitly,
such that any undocumented values (e.g. typos such as "ful") are
reported as errors rather than being silently accepted.
Note that __setup() and early_param() have opposite conventions for
their return values, where __setup() uses 1 to indicate a parameter was
handled and early_param() uses 0 to indicate a parameter was handled.

Fixes: 0d6ea3ac94ca ("lib/kstrtox.c: add "false"/"true" support to kstrtobool()")

When building the kernel with sparse enabled 'C=1' the following
warnings can be seen:
arch/arm64/kernel/setup.c:58:13: warning: symbol '__fdt_pointer' was not declared. Should it be static?
arch/arm64/kernel/setup.c:84:25: warning: symbol 'boot_args' was not declared. Should it be static?
Rework so the variables are exported, since these two variable are
created and used in setup.c, also used in head.S.

As we want to parse more options very early in the kernel lifetime,
let's always map the FDT early. This is achieved by moving that
code out of kaslr_early_init().
No functional change expected.

The patch adds the kernel booting and the initial setup code.
Documentation/arm64/booting.txt describes the booting protocol on the
AArch64 Linux kernel. This is subject to change following the work on
boot standardisation, ACPI.
