It was a hostboot bug that turned up some time early in p9 bringup
that never seemed to get fixed so I worked around it instead. Maybe
it's been fixed by now, but honestly I don't really care.

I think it's a carry over from earlier versions of this patchset which
put the secure memory ranges into /reserved-memory/ rather than having
actual memory nodes. I don't think there's any real need to support
giant reservations in secure memory so this should probably be
dropped.
