See below definition in drivers/ddr/imx/imx8m/Kconfig

config SAVED_DRAM_TIMING_BASE
	hex "Define the base address for saved dram timing"
	help
	  after DRAM is trained, need to save the dram related timming
	  info into memory for low power use. OCRAM_S is used for this
	  purpose on i.MX8MM.
	default 0x180000

That's fine to add a map, just remind to use it carefully since it
already used by ATF.

You also need below change, the index for DRAM1 is used in codes to
help remove the OPTEE space from MMU table.
