Hello
This patch is breaking the boot on STM32MP135F-DK.
On this platform, we got an area above gd->ram_top,
this area, reserved for OPTEE, is tagged with LMB_NOMAP in boot_fdt_add_mem_rsv_regions().
Since this commit 1a48b0be93d4 ("lmb: prohibit allocations above ram_top even from same bank"),
this area is no more tagged as LMB_NOMAP, because it's previously been
tagged with LMB_NOOVERWRITE in lmb_add_memory().
By not being tagged LMB_NOMAP, the MMU configuration is impacted and leads to a panic.
I suggest to revert this patch.
