It makes sense to keep these coding stretches in sync.

@Thirupathaiah
* I did not find any example in the Linux code where a status for
   a subnode of /reserved-memory was specified. Where did you
   observe reserved memory not having status="okay"?
* Does Linux check the status?
* Could the /reserved-memory node itself have a status other than
   "okay"?

How should we treat reserved memory marked as 'reusable'? Should UEFI
make these regions as reserved?

I tried to understand when boot_fdt_add_mem_rsv_regions() is invoked. I
was astonished that the dhcp command calls it when loading a file. At
that time the device-tree used for booting is not known:

=> dhcp helloworld_arm64.efi
e1000: 52:54:00:12:34:56

Warning: e1000#0 using MAC address from ROM
