[PATCH 3/3] ARM: dts: samsung: exynos5420-galaxy-tab-common: decrease available memory
Posted by Henrik Grimler 2 years ago
The last 6 MiB are used by trustzone firmware, and cannot be used by
Linux.  Currently we are saved by that the proprietary bootloader
(sboot) passes available memory to kernel through ATAG_MEM.  Change
memory range in any case so that we do not have to rely on ATAG_MEM.

Similar fix was applied for the exynos5422 odroids in commit
6591a02e17e6 ("ARM: dts: reduce total RAM by 22 MiB for
exynos5422-odroidxu3"):
