Under OpenBoot on sparc64:
The value of the #address-cells property in the root node is the
default value of 2. The value of the #size-cells property in the root
node is the non-default value 2. (NOTE: Since the #address-cells property
value in the root node is the default value 2, the property may or may
not exist since the absence of the property implies the default value.)
So the address-cells property may or may not be there in the root
device node. However we can depend upon the size-cells property being
there, and equal to 2.
The easiest way to handle this in the current grub code is to check to
see if the size-cells value is larger than the address-cells value.
Since that is nonsensicle, when we see that situation we set the
address-cells value to be equal to size-cells.

* kern/ieee1275/mmap.c (grub_machine_mmap_iterate): If size_cells
is larger than address_cells, use that value for address_cells too.
