memory-region properties are not typically converted into a standard
resource automatically. One reason may be that they can have additional
properties associated with them and so something like a CACHEABLE type
may not apply.

It's also standard to convert "reg" properties into struct resource and
that's what many drivers will expect. I don't know if all drivers will
gracefully handle being passed a struct resource that was created in
this way from a memory-region property. If at all I think this would
need to be special-cased for simple-framebuffer, in which case I'm not
convinced that putting the special case into the core OF code is any
better than putting it into the simpledrm driver.

Also, even if we did so, what would it really change? We may be able to
avoid the explicit DT lookup, but the bulk of the memory-region code is
actually mapping it, etc. That part we won't be able to automatically
handle, I think.

Ultimately this is up to Rob, not sure if he'll want to extend the
simple-framebuffer node creation code any further.
