I am beginner to Device Tree. I know that after a few architecture-specific initialization, start_kernel function will be called. Could someone provide some material on how dtb is parsed..? First fdt function called..?

"First fdt function called..?" -- Try looking at of_core_init(). Use a cross reference such as bootlin.com to trace that function back to arch_call_rest_init() and start_kernel(). – sawdust
