Sven Eckelmann c4c2a8f00c ipq40xx: Move reserved-memory DT to qcom-ipq4019.dtsi
The tz and smem reserved-memory information handled in the upstream Linux
sources by the SoC specific dtsi and not by the the boards dts. Using the
same approach in OpenWrt avoids unneccessary duplication.

Subject: [PATCH] ARM: dts: ipq4019: Add TZ and SMEM reserved regions
The QSEE (trustzone) is started on IPQ4019 before Linux is started.
According to QCA, it is placed in in the the memory region
0x87e80000-0x88000000 and must not be accessed directly. There is an
additional memory region 0x87e00000-0x87E80000 smem which which can be used
for communication with the TZ. The driver for the latter is not yet ready
but it is still not allowed to use this memory region like any other
memory region.
Not reserving this memory region either leads to kernel crashes, kernel
hangs (often during the boot) or bus errors for userspace programs. The
latter happens when a program is using a memory region which is mapped to
these physical memory regions.

There are additional memory regions which have to be initialized first by
Linux. So they are currently not used. We were told by QCA that the
features QSDK uses them for are:
* crash dump feature
- a couple of regions used when 'qca,scm_restart_reason' dt node has the
value 'dload_status' not set to 1
+ apps_bl <0x87000000 0x400000>
+ sbl <0x87400000 0x100000>
+ cnss_debug <0x87400000 0x100000>
+ cpu_context_dump <0x87b00000 0x080000>
- required driver not available in Linux
- safe to remove
* QSEE app execution
- region tz_apps <0x87b80000 0x280000>
- required driver not available in Linux
- safe to remove
* communication with TZ/QSEE
- region smem <0x87b80000 0x280000>
- driver changes not yet upstreamed
- must not be removed because any access can crash kernel/program
* trustzone (QSEE) private memory
- region tz <0x87e80000 0x180000>
- must not be removed because any access can crash kernel/program
The problem with the missing regions was reported in 2016 [1]. So maybe
this change qualifies for a stable@vger.kernel.org submission.
