It's generally a good idea to include a short description of what
changed in the patch between patch versions. This helps reviewers
avoid digging through the patch and trying to find updates.

These two functions, read_drconf_cell_v2 and read_one_drc_info, are defined
in this patch but are not used. I think it makes more sense to introduce
new functionality in the patch that uses that functionality.

We do the same thing in early_init_dt_scan_drconf_memory_v1 to retrieve
the memblock_size, perhaps it makes sense to break this out into a
helper routine.

Perhaps a comment here to help understand the calculation without having
to look up the format of the dynamic-mnemory-v2 device tree format.

Will this check still work?

I believe the goal is to convert the dynamic-memory-v2 property
back to the current dynamic-memory property update and manage memory
with that. This allows us to not have to worry about kexec during
parse of the -v2 property. On a kexec boot though, will this test for
FW_FEATURE_DYN_MEM_V2 succeed even though we would have a -v1
version of the property. Perhaps the test should be for the
existence of the -v2 property.
