I'm not sure how this is supposed to work, since DT reserved memory
regions are not used by EFI. If you want to reserve memory on a UEFI
system, you have to reserve it in the UEFI memory map from firmware.
The DT reserved-memory node is taken into account too late, the
/memreserve/ entries are ignored entirely.
