The intent is to reserve memory _and_ prevent it from being included in the kernel's linear map. For thos reason it is also necessary to include the 'no-map' property for this reserved-mem node.
From Documentation/devicetree/bindings/reserved-memory/reserved-memory.txt:
no-map (optional) - empty property - Indicates the operating system must not create a virtual mapping of the region as part of its standard mapping of system memory, nor permit speculative access to it under any circumstances other than under the control of the device driver using the region.

Need error-checking on these three

Is this in a binding file somewhere?
The reserved memory is needed to avoid the linux kernel to use it and to get a persistent framebuffer. On some SoC I have implemented the reuse on the memory on their graphics driver. I need to check how this is documented in Linux. The name of the reserved memory it's not mandatory.
if (offs < 0) {
printf("Could not create %s%s node.\n", path, subpath);
return -1;
return offs
ok
}
fdt_setprop(blob, offs, "no-map", NULL, 0);
and this?
ok
Also needs error check
len = fdt_pack_reg(blob, temp, start, size, 1);
fdt_setprop(blob, offs, "reg", temp, len);
blank line before return
done

Really we should return an FDT_ERR always. -1 is not a good idea and in fact is an FDT_ERR
Now with the change FDT_ERR only is returned.
