We already have a way to setup CMA in reserved-memory, so why is this
needed for that?

I have doubts this can really be generic...

Not really a valid assumption for general code.

Don't use the old fdt scanning interface with depth/data. It's not
really needed now because you can just use libfdt calls.

Relying on the defaults has been a dtc error longer than arm64 has
existed. If they are missing, just bail.

It's possible to have multiple levels of nodes and dma-ranges. You
need to handle that case too.

Doing that and handling differing address translations will be
complicated. IMO, I'd just do:

if (of_fdt_machine_is_compatible(blob, "brcm,bcm2711"))
    dma_zone_size = XX;

2 lines of code is much easier to maintain than 10s of incomplete code
and is clearer who needs this. Maybe if we have dozens of SoCs with
this problem we should start parsing dma-ranges.
