hw: riscv: Allow large kernels to boot by moving the initrd further away in RAM
Currently, the initrd is placed at 128MB, which overlaps with the kernel
when it is large (for example syzbot kernels are). From the kernel side,
there is no reason we could not push the initrd further away in memory
to accommodate large kernels, so move the initrd at 512MB when possible.

The ideal solution would have been to place the initrd based on the
kernel size but we actually can't since the bss size is not known when
the image is loaded by load_image_targphys_as() and the initrd would
then overlap with this section.
