Not really the direction I like going by moving more things back to
arch code, but I haven't come up with any better suggestion so:

Acked-by: Rob Herring <robh at kernel.org>

BTW, I do want to move early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem out of the
arch code as well. Other arches don't call it, but it should be
harmless if they never use the reserved memory regions.
