I'm still growing my device tree expertise. Can you elaborate on why SDRAM0
shouldn't be described generically as a "memory-controller" device in the
same way the EMAC0 is generically described as a "network" device? A URL to
said elaboration would be sufficient.

See above qualifier; will remove.

Thanks for the prompt review!
