ramoops: use DT reserved-memory bindings
Instead of a ramoops-specific node, use a child node of /reserved-memory. This requires that of_platform_device_create() be explicitly called for the node, though, since "/reserved-memory" does not have its own "compatible" property.

-Ramoops oops/panic logger
-=========================
-
-ramoops provides persistent RAM storage for oops and panics, so they can be
-recovered after a reboot. It is a backend to pstore, so this node is named
-"ramoops" after the backend, rather than "pstore" which is the subsystem.
-
-Parts of this storage may be set aside for other persistent log buffers, such
-as kernel log messages, or for optional ECC error-correction data. The total
-size of these optional buffers must fit in the reserved region.
-
-Any remaining space will be used for a circular buffer of oops and panic
-records. These records have a configurable size, with a size of 0 indicating
-that they should be disabled.
-
-At least one of "record-size", "console-size", "ftrace-size", or "pmsg-size"
-must be set non-zero, but are otherwise optional as listed below.
-
-
-Required properties:
-
-- compatible: must be "ramoops"
-
-- memory-region: phandle to a region of memory that is preserved between
- reboots
-
-
-Optional properties:
-
-- ecc-size: enables ECC support and specifies ECC buffer size in bytes
- (defaults to 0: no ECC)
-
-- record-size: maximum size in bytes of each dump done on oops/panic
- (defaults to 0: disabled)
-
-- console-size: size in bytes of log buffer reserved for kernel messages
- (defaults to 0: disabled)
-
-- ftrace-size: size in bytes of log buffer reserved for function tracing and
- profiling (defaults to 0: disabled)
-
-- pmsg-size: size in bytes of log buffer reserved for userspace messages
- (defaults to 0: disabled)
-
-- unbuffered: if present, use unbuffered mappings to map the reserved region
- (defaults to buffered mappings)
-
-- no-dump-oops: if present, only dump panics (defaults to panics and oops)
