also it seems "memory" is special and memory without unitname will stay 
allowed [0], especially as uboot or other bootloaders may expect such a node 
to insert the actual amount of memory into it.

Looking at uboot, fdt_fixup_memory_banks seems to look explicitly for a 
"memory" node, so I'm actually not sure, if this is safe to keep at all.
