I have test following 3 methods:

1. current patch
DT:
	memory {
		reg = <0x00000000 0x20000000>; /* 512MB */
	};

	reserved-memory {
		#address-cells = <1>;
		#size-cells = <1>;
		ranges;

		iop_reserve: iop_device {
			no-map;
			reg = <0x00100000 0x00100000>; 
		};
		a926_reserve: a926_memory {
			no-map;
			reg = <0x00000000 0x00100000>;
		};
	};
arch/arm/Makefile:
	textofs-$(CONFIG_ARCH_SUNPLUS) := 0x00308000

bootlog & meminfo :
[    0.000000] Zone ranges:
[    0.000000]   Normal   [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x000000001fffffff]

MemFree:          491960 kB
MemAvailable:     488608 kB



2. DT same as case 1, but no modify @ arch/arm/Makefile

bootlog & meminfo :
[    0.000000] OF: fdt: Reserved memory: failed to reserve memory for node 'iop_device': base 0x00100000, size 1 MiB

[    0.000000]   node   0: [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x000000001fffffff]
[    0.000000] Initmem setup node 0 [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x000000001fffffff]

MemTotal:         516056 kB
MemFree:          493928 kB
MemAvailable:     490572 kB



3. DT:
	memory {
		reg = <0x00300000 0x1FD00000>; /* 512 - 3 MB */
	};
no modify @ arch/arm/Makefile

bootlog & meminfo :
[    0.000000] Zone ranges:
[    0.000000]   Normal   [mem 0x0000000000400000-0x000000001fffffff]

[    0.000000] Early memory node ranges
[    0.000000]   node   0: [mem 0x0000000000400000-0x000000001fffffff]
[    0.000000] Initmem setup node 0 [mem 0x0000000000400000-0x000000001fffffff]

~ # cat /proc/meminfo
MemTotal:         511964 kB
MemFree:          489636 kB
MemAvailable:     486292 kB



I think method 1 should be correct (compare method 2) & better (compare method 3).
