Nice to know.

In Linux v6.4 the node looks like this:

 27     memory at 20000000 {
 28         reg = <0x20000000 0x8000000>;
 29     };

The 0x8000000 are equal to 134217728 aka 128M, so that cmdline arg is
redundant.  The sam9x60_curiosity_mmc1_defconfig also does not have
it.  I'll add a note on this to the commit message in v2 of the
series.
