MIPS: pic32: treat port as signed integer

get_port_from_cmdline() returns an int, yet is assigned to a char, which
is wrong in its own right, but also, with char becoming unsigned, this
poses problems, because -1 is used as an error value. Further
complicating things, fw_init_early_console() is only ever called with a
-1 argument. Fix this up by removing the unused argument from
fw_init_early_console() and treating port as a proper signed integer.

MIPS: Malta: Remove fw_memblock_t abstraction

The fw_getmdesc function & fw_memblock_t abstraction is only used by
Malta, and so far as I can tell serves no purpose beyond making the code
less clear than it could be. Remove the useless level of abstraction.

MIPS: malta: malta-memory: Add support for the 'ememsize' variable

The 'ememsize' variable is used to denote the real RAM which is
present on the Malta board. This is different compared to 'memsize'
which is capped to 256MB. The 'ememsize' is used to get the actual
physical memory when setting up the Malta memory layout. This only
makes sense in case the core operates in the EVA mode, and it's
ignored otherwise.
