So there is a hole in the middle? Does this require any special
CONFIG_ option to support sparse memory?

This is how RAM is mapped on all known Northstar devices. Using two
blocks.

I've heard there is a way to design Northstar SoC board to have all RAM
in one region but thay requires disabling something (I don't remember
what) and in practice to vendor decided to do that.

AFAIK no extra CONFIG_* option is needed to make Linux map multiple RAM
regions.
