Just to make sure I've understood. I see memblock_ calls in
	mach-mx31_3ds.c
	mach-pcm037.c
	mach-mx31moboard.c
these all seem to be mx3 related.

For mx1 and mx2, these currently increase CONSISTENT_DMA_SIZE to 4MB,
but the 2MB default is actually big enough for these?

Therefore, as you said, we can just delete the definitions of
CONSISTENT_DMA_SIZE from memory.h and leave all other imx and mx5 files
unchanged.

Thanks.
