Alistair Francis 9f44d07df5 platform: qemu/virt: Move kernel start address to 4MB alligned
In order to support 32-bit guests move the start address to a 4MB
allignment. As 64-bit kernels have a requirement on being 2MB alligned
let's just make this the default for both 32 and 64 bit kernels.

QEMU RISC-V Virt Machine Platform
=================================
The **QEMU RISC-V Virt Machine** is virtual platform created for RISC-V
software development and testing. It is also referred as
*QEMU RISC-V VirtIO machine* because it uses VirtIO devices for network,
storage, and other types of IO.
To build platform specific library and firmwares, provide the
*PLATFORM=qemu/virt* parameter to the top level `make` command.
Platform Options
----------------
The *QEMU RISC-V Virt Machine* platform does not have any platform specific
options.
Execution on QEMU RISC-V 64bit
------------------------------
**No Payload Case**
Build:
```
make PLATFORM=qemu/virt
```
Run:
```
qemu-system-riscv64 -M virt -m 256M -display none -serial stdio \
-kernel build/platform/qemu/virt/firmware/fw_payload.elf
```
**U-Boot Payload**
Note: the command line examples here assume that U-Boot was compiled using
the `qemu-riscv64_smode_defconfig` configuration.
Build:
```
make PLATFORM=qemu/virt FW_PAYLOAD_PATH=<uboot_build_directory>/u-boot.bin
```
Run:
```
qemu-system-riscv64 -M virt -m 256M -display none -serial stdio \
-kernel build/platform/qemu/virt/firmware/fw_payload.elf
```
or
```
qemu-system-riscv64 -M virt -m 256M -display none -serial stdio \
-kernel build/platform/qemu/virt/firmware/fw_jump.elf \
-device loader,file=<uboot_build_directory>/u-boot.bin,addr=0x80400000
```
**Linux Kernel Payload**
Note: We assume that Linux kernel is compiled using
*arch/riscv/configs/defconfig*.
Build:
```
make PLATFORM=qemu/virt FW_PAYLOAD_PATH=<linux_build_directory>/arch/riscv/boot/Image
```
Run:
```
qemu-system-riscv64 -M virt -m 256M -display none -serial stdio \
-kernel build/platform/qemu/virt/firmware/fw_payload.elf \
-drive file=<path_to_linux_rootfs>,format=raw,id=hd0 \
-device virtio-blk-device,drive=hd0 \
-append "root=/dev/vda rw console=ttyS0"
```
or
```
qemu-system-riscv64 -M virt -m 256M -display none -serial stdio \
-kernel build/platform/qemu/virt/firmware/fw_jump.elf \
-device loader,file=<linux_build_directory>/arch/riscv/boot/Image,addr=0x80400000 \
-drive file=<path_to_linux_rootfs>,format=raw,id=hd0 \
-device virtio-blk-device,drive=hd0 \
-append "root=/dev/vda rw console=ttyS0"
```
