Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: fix memory reservation for non-usermem setups

From: Tobias Wolf <dev-NTEO@...ace.de>

Commit 67a3ba25aa95 ("MIPS: Fix incorrect mem=X@Y handling") introduced a new
issue for rt288x where "PHYS_OFFSET" is 0x0 but the calculated "ramstart" is
not. As the prerequisite of custom memory map has been removed, this results
in the full memory range of 0x0 - 0x8000000 to be marked as reserved for this
platform.

This patch adds the originally intended prerequisite again.

This patch has been present in OpenWrt tree for over 2 years:
