As dynamic ramoops command line parsing is now added, so
lets add the support in ramoops driver to get the resource
structure and add it during platform device registration.

Documentation/admin-guide/ramoops.rst might need an update as well.
I have said in the cover-letter under changes in v5, it is open for
comment and not yet documented it yet.

You might want to add "arch_" prefix to dyn_ramoops resource so that it
would be clear that it is coming from arch code. This code needs to
guard against arch not supplying this.
Sure, thanks for pointing this.
Agree, if we finally decide to keep it in arch/arm64 .
