+Ramtrace trace events logger
+============================
+
+ramtrace provides persistent RAM storage for ring buffer in which the trace
+events are recorded, so they can be recovered after a reboot. This is a
+child-node of "/reserved-memory", and is named "ramtrace" after the backend,
+rather than "pstore" which is the subsystem.
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible: must be "ramtrace"
+
+- reg: region of memory that is preserved between reboots
