Put cont splash memory region under the reserved-memory

Doesn't this mean we loose 0x2400000 of DRAM for all rb3 platforms
though ? About what 37 megabytes.. ?

I think this memory is further used for display memory allocation. So
we are not loosing it, but dedicating it to the framebuffer memory.
Not exactly, to do so, you'd have to use the memory-region property
with mdss, which nobody does. Otherwise it's just a hole for Linux.

Then maybe it's time to start using that property?
