If the bootloader needs the start of memory to be preserved, for example because it dropped the Trusted Firmware blob there, this chunk of memory shouldn't be used by the kernel. To avoid adding yet another SoC-specific text offset to arch/arm/Makefile, this patch allows for a /memreserve/ entry in the DTS to mark off the memory chunk instead.
