Thinking further about this. I was looking at the schema file and
different commits and it the right approach could be:

- add separate compatible for mmio-sram region for this case. Similar
to scmi and scpi, i'd say it should be "exynos,acpm-sram" or
"samsung,acpm-sram";

- update schema sram.yaml to exclude requirement for having child nodes
and properties like ranges, address and size cells
Similar like in commit, for instance, git show d0fe6491ddd22
(or git show 2d4a22e79a5fd).

- then this addition becomes:

	apm_sram: sram at 2039000 {
		compatible = "exynos,acpm-sram";
		reg = <0x0 0x2039000 0x40000>;
	};

and will be consumed as a whole region (also as Tudor mentioned in the
other email).
And then we should update gs101 dts as well. Thoughts?

I honestly don't know why be default schema requires child nodes unless
it is specifically excluded. Could be a good question to Rob?
Or maybe we should really drop a requirement for having children from
schema.
