"..SOCs using similar chassis components of OMAP4430 time are impacted..."
"..But AM335x should be immune from this particular issue..."

SRAM is not allocated here - It's just check to understand do we need it or not
in case of multiplatform build where CONFIG_OMAP_INTERCONNECT_BARRIER will be selected most
probably.

And if "ti,omap4-mpu" was not found - it just means that this, particular, platform
is not affected by i688 errata.
If someone misses corresponding node in DT - we can't do nothing :)
