At the moment the whole available memory is added to one single memory
bank "ram0". This can cause barebox chainload issues on devices with a
huge amount of memory like the i.MX8MP-EVK which has 6G of RAM if the
barebox pbl binary is to large.
The reason for this issues is that memory_bank_first_find_space()
returns the memory area with the largest amount of free space on the
first memory bank. So in case of Debix SOM-A 8G and i.MX8MP-EVK 6G this
is the area crossing the 4G boundary. This cause the barebox pbl code to
trigger a MMU exception once the early MMU gets enabled which is
configured for sizes <=4G.
Split the memory space into two memory banks: "ram0" and "ram1" to fix
this issue.

v2:
- drop add_mem() usage and use arm_add_mem_device() directly
