Description

I am studying opensbi recently, and reading the firmware document.
When I read the docs/firmware/fw.md and its line FW_TEXT_ADDR - Defines the execution address of the OpenSBI firmware. This configuration parameter is mandatory. I try to grep FW_TEXT_ADDR in project, and I only can find it only appears one time. I think the word maybe should be FW_TEXT_START instead of FW_TEXT_ADDR. I found that FW_TEXT_START that appears at many place like config.mk and the it corresponds the word description.

Research direction

Start with docs/firmware/fw.md and compare the documented FW_TEXT_ADDR entry with the FW_TEXT_START references found in config.mk and elsewhere in the project. Confirm which name is used by the project, then update the documentation so the parameter name and description match; done means no obsolete name remains in that documentation entry.
