....so the second core only gets a maximum of 0x200000 of SRAM?
I'm not sure how useful is the secondary SCP core, at this point, with so little
available SRAM but... okay, as you wish.

This is telling me _what_ gets done rather than _why_ it gets done.

Do you require to fix a "reserved-memory" node in a device tree file to account
for this?

Hi Mathieu,

Sorry for the late response.

I will modify the commit message in the next version.

Using a "reserved-memory" node to calculate max_dram_size presents
challenges due to alignment requirements in dma_alloc_coherent().

For example, 

static const struct mtk_scp_sizes_data mt8188_scp_c1_sizes = {
        .max_dram_size = 0xA00000,
        .ipi_share_buffer_size = 600,
};

We require 2560 pages (10M) for SCP core1 usage, but alignment
constraints necessitate searching for a free region of 2^12 pages
(16M). This misalignment between the reserved 10M and the required 16M
prevents successful allocation.

Adjusting the reserved memory to 16M for core1 would lead to a 6M
wastage. To avoid this, reserving a larger memory block is advisable.
This block can be partially used by SCP core1, with the remainder
allocated to feature drivers. Consequently, setting the max_dram_size
in SCP configurations is a practical solution to meet these
requirements.
