The k210 memory node has a compatible string that does not match with
any driver or dt-binding & has several non standard properties.
Replace the reg names with a comment and delete the rest.

Gah, should've fixed that during rebase.
I'm sure there'll need to be (at least) a v2 & I'll wait rather
than resend.
Thanks,
Conor.

These are used by u-boot to setup the memory clocks and initialize the
aisram. Sure the kernel actually does not use this, but to be in sync with
u-boot DT, I would prefer keeping this as is. Right now, u-boot *and* the
kernel work fine with both u-boot internal DT and the kernel DT.

Right, but unfortunately that desire alone doesn't do anything about
the dtbs_check complaints.

I guess the alternative approach of actually documenting the compatible
would be more palatable?

Yes, I think so. That would allow keeping the fields without the DTB build
warnings.

Hmm looks like that approach contradicts the dt-schema;
https://github.com/devicetree-org/dt-schema/blob/main/dtschema/schemas/memory.yaml

@Rob,Krzysztof what is one meant to do here?

Thanks,
Conor.

Why do you think it contradict bindings? Bindings for memory allow
additional properties, so you just need to create binding for this one.
And make it a correct binding, IOW, be sure that these clocks are real etc.

Although usually we had separate bindings (and device drivers) for
memory controllers, instead of including them in the "memory" node.

Best regards,
Krzysztof

Because when I tried to write the binding, the memory node complained
about the clock properties etc and referenced the dt-schema (which
for memory@foo nodes has additionalProperties: false.

I guess changing to that format would probably require some changes on
the U-Boot side of things. Taking "calxeda,hb-ddr-ctrl" as an example,
looks like the clocks etc go in a controller node, which seems like a
"better" way of doing it - but would break existing dts in U-Boot
without changes to handle both methods there.

Thanks,
Conor.

Ah, I see, I looked at wrong level. Indeed memory node cannot have
anything else.

Yes, because I think memory node is kind of special. It describes the
physical memory layout for the system, not the memory controller or
memory characteristics (like timings).

What U-Boot needs is indeed memory controller node. It's not only
calxeda but also few others using JEDEC LPDDR bindings.

Yes, that's a bit inconvenient but also a price someone has to pay for
introducing DTS properties without bindings.

Alright so, I'll make it a memory controller and conjure up a v2.
As always, thanks for your help Krzysztof!
