[PATCH v4 04/17] bootm: Create bootm_final() for pre-boot cleanup

From: Simon Glass <simon.glass at canonical.com>
There are various functions which announce that booting is imminent and
do related preparation. Most of these are arch-specific.
In practice, most archs do a similar thing. It would be better to
have a common function, with perhaps some events for things that are
really arch- and board-specific.
Create a new bootm_final() function with the common pre-boot steps:
printing the "Starting kernel" message, recording bootstage data,
optionally writing bootstage to the FDT and printing a report, and
removing active devices.
Be careful to avoid using BIT() macros which are not available with host
tools.

Changes in v4:
- Print '(fake run for tracing)' when flag is set
- Use BOOTM_STATE_OS_FAKE_GO instead of new enum bootm_final_t
Changes in v3:
- Fix "the a" typo
- Introduce with all common functionality (not empty)
- Put in bootm.c instead of a separate file
- Squash in patches 2, 3 and 5 from v2
