Thanks for your patch!

This patch is not needed: TF-A passes the memory size to U-Boot,
which updates the /memory node in the DTB passed to Linux:

$ dtc -O ebisu/r8a77990-ebisu.dtb | grep -A2 -w memory
    memory@...00000 {
            device_type = "memory";
            reg = <0x00 0x48000000 0x00 0x38000000>;
    };
