[U-Boot] [PATCH] km-powerpc: define CONFIG_PRAM to protect PHRAM and PNVRAM

When u-boot initializes the RAM (early in boot) it looks for the "pram"
env variable to know which is area it cannot use.

At this early boot stage, the "pram" env variable is not avaible yet
since it gets computed in set_km_env that gets called AFTER the RAM
initialization. If the "pram" env variable is not found, the default
CONFIG_PRAM value is used.

This value used to 0 (no protection at all). This patch sets it to a
value that covers PHRAM and PNVRAM that must be protected in our case.
