Maybe write it as this is "firmware adjustable" such that when/if ACPI
needs something like this, the description does not need updating.

MEMREMAP_WB sounds appropriate as a default.
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/reserved-memory/ramoops.txt does
define an "unbuffered" property which in premise could be applied to the
generic reserved memory binding as well and that we may have to be
honoring here, if we were to make it more generic. Oh well, this does
not need to be addressed right now I guess.
