[PATCH linux dev-4.7 2/2] ARM: dts: aspeed: Reserve memory on all P9 machines

This flash_memory region reserved memory region is used by the host<->bmc
mailbox daemon.

The vga_memory region is for the host processor's framebuffer when using
the Aspeed as a PCI graphics device. We reserve the maximum region to
protect against bad host drivers. In the future this should correspond
to the amount of memory we've told the host it can use.

These numbers were generated as follows for Zaius:

 $ genmem.py --ram-base 0x80000000 --ram 1G --flash 64M

And for Romulus and Witherspoon:

 $ genmem.py --ram-base 0x80000000 --ram 512M --flash 64M --vga 64M

With this script:

def convert_one(s):
    suffixes = [
                ('K', 1024),
                ('M', (1024*1024)),
                ('G', (1024*1024*1024)),
                ('T', (1024*1024*1024*1024)),
                ('th', 1000),
                ('mi', (1000*1000)),
                ('bi', (1000*1000*1000)),
                ('tri', (1000*1000*1000*1000))
               ]

    s = s.strip()

    factor = 1
    for suffix, mul in suffixes:
        if s.endswith(suffix) or s.endswith(suffix.lower()):
            factor = mul
            s = s[:-len(suffix)]
            break

    val = None

    if s.startswith('0b'):
        val = convert_binary(s)
    elif s.startswith('0x'):
        val = int(s, 16)
    else:
        for c in 'abcdefABCDEF':
            if c in s:
                val = int(s, 16)
                break

    if val is None:
        val = int(s)

    val *= factor

    return val

import argparse
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
parser.add_argument('--ram-base')
parser.add_argument('--ram')
parser.add_argument('--flash')
parser.add_argument('--vga')

args = parser.parse_args()
base = convert_one(args.ram_base)
size = convert_one(args.ram)
flash_size = convert_one(args.flash)
vga_size = 0
if args.vga:
    vga_size = convert_one(args.vga)

vga_base = base + size - vga_size
flash_base = base + size - vga_size - flash_size

if flash_base % flash_size != 0:
    print("Error: flash base address not a multiple of window. Rounding down")
    flash_base -= flash_base % flash_size

print("memory {\r\n\treg = <0x%08x 0x%08x>;\r\n}" % (base, size))
if vga_size > 0:
    print("vga_memory {\r\n\tno-map;\r\n\treg = <0x%08x 0x%08x>;\r\n}" % (vga_base, vga_base))
print("flash_memory {\r\n\tno-map;\r\n\treg = <0x%08x 0x%08x>;\r\n}" % (flash_base, flash_size))
