But this is jh7100-common.dtsi. Is it guaranteed that all boards > derived from this have at least 4G? What happens is a board only has > 2G? Yes, both the BeagleV Starlight and StarFive VisionFive V1 boards have at least 4G of ram and there won't be any more boards with this SoC. It was a test chip for the JH7110 after all. There aren't really any limitations on where this pool could be placed, so I just chose to wedge it between ranges reserved for graphics by the bootloader.
