What is your starting point?  Where does the device tree (and

that you're passing to kexec?  My first impression is that if you have
to scrub the memreserve list, then the source being used to
obtain the memreserves is either faulty or unsuitable to the task.
The kernel should ultimately pass the thing to userspace I reckon, with
an appropriate hook for platform code to insert/recover reserved
regions.
