Subject: arm64: dts: mt7986: use size of reserved partition for bl2
From: Frank Wunderlich <frank-w@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 7afe7b5969329175ac4f55a6b9c13ba4f6dc267e upstream.
To store uncompressed bl2 more space is required than partition is
actually defined.
There is currently no known usage of this reserved partition.
Openwrt uses same partition layout.
We added same change to u-boot with commit d7bb1099 [1].
