What about overriding status of sysram at 02020000 node to "disabled" and 
adding a new sysram at 02025000 node in universal C210 dts?

However, I'm still a bit concerned about using such platform and 
use-case specific compatible strings here. SYSRAM is basically a normal 
SRAM memory and usually just some specific areas of it are reserved for 
special purposes.
