Saw your reply but don't completely understand it. I think we'd still like U-Boot to populate the memory property if possible and it sounds like your patch would prevent that. One reason is that we'd like to be able to handle different memory configurations (one of which is 3.5G) with a single binary and have U-Boot just tell the kernel how much space there is.
So, I've been assuming that these are different platforms that you already append different device trees on, so that you use the same binary still and just different DTs. Is that not the case here?
Current thought is that we'll even share a device tree between the two boards since differences between the two are very minimal. Sorta like how you can buy a Galaxy Nexus with 8G or 16G. They're the same device (as far as I know) just with a different eMMC part stuffed on.
OK. I'll pick up this patch then, thanks!
