Sorry I didn't get you, maybe the diff is creating an illusion, this is 
a new function to reserve from bloblist and a wrapper around 
reserve_video_from_bloblist. I created the wrapper so that in future if 
any new blobs are getting passed they can be added inside this (they 
need to be after video region which is from end of ram) and relocaddr 
adjusted accordingly before proceeding with uboot proper reservations.
This is inline with our strategy to have SPL regions reserved from end 
of RAM so that uboot starts reserving right after them.

The existing function to reserve_video is still there [1]

I remember testing this with make and also testing the functionality 
part of it, will try check with this command too.
