mips: Move initrd_start check after initrd address sanitisation. 

[ Upstream commit 4897a898a2 ]

PAGE_OFFSET is technically a virtual address so when checking the value of
initrd_start against it we should make sure that it has been sanitised from
the values passed by the bootloader. Without this change, even with a bootloader
that passes correct addresses for an initrd, we are failing to load it on MT7621
boards, for example.
