[PATCH v2 2/2] board: rock5b-rk3588: add memory gaps into kernel's DTB

RK3588 has two memory gaps when using 16 GiB DRAM size:
[0x3fc000000 , 0x3fc500000]
and
[0x3fff00000 , 0x3ffffffff]

If the kernel is agnostic to these gaps, accessing the area causes
a SError panic.

Hence, add reserved memory areas in kernel's DTB before booting.

Hi,

These memory gaps are required because the kernel crashes with a SError if
accessing that area.
It appears the ATAGs provide DDR banks that do not include those specific
two regions.
To be able to boot the kernel, those areas have to be reserved.
Maybe someone from Rockchip could have an explanation to this behavior?
Otherwise we have to block them at this level.
If those memory ranges are reserved for a dedicated purpose we can come up
with a better solution, w.r.t. the purpose of the regions.

Thanks !
Eugen
