I matched my dts's reserved-memory nodes with downstream but it didn't help.

Most of the no-map reserved memory regions in the downstream kernel
are accompanied with "removed-dma-pool" compatibility, "to indicate a
region of memory which is meant to be carved out and not exposed to
kernel." [1][2]. Is this something which might be tripping my device
off? I tried to cherry-pick removed-dma-pool from msm kernel[3], to
see if that makes any difference but I might have missed a few
dependencies and my device didn't boot.
