[PATCH v2 0/2] android: colibri_imx7: reserve DDR memory for Cortex-M4

i.MX 7's Cortex-M4 core can run from DDR and uses DDR memory for
the rpmsg communication. Both use cases need a fixed location of
memory reserved. For the rpmsg use case the reserved area needs
to be in sync with the kernel's hardcoded vring descriptor location.

Introduce support for adding linux,usable-memory property to carve
out 1MB of memory in case the M4 core is running. Also make sure
that the i.MX 7 specific rpmsg driver does not get loaded in case
we do not carve out memory.

v2:
- fixed build where CONFIG_ARCH_FIXUP_FDT_MEMORY is not set.
