[PATCH] arm64: dts: mediatek: mt7988a-bananapi-bpi-r4: add ramoops region

[Martino Dell'Ambrogio]

Reserve 1 MiB of RAM just below the ARM Trusted Firmware secmon region
(0x42f00000-0x43000000) for persistent kernel log storage via pstore/ramoops,
allowing post-panic console output and oops dumps to be recovered after a
reboot. Without it, kernel crash logs on this board are lost when the SoC
warm-resets and the on-chip console buffer is reinitialised.

The record sizes (128 KiB kmsg records, 256 KiB rolling console, 64 KiB
ftrace, 64 KiB pmsg) sum to 512 KiB; the remainder of the 1 MiB carve-out
is used for the ECC parity blocks (ecc-size=16, one Reed-Solomon block per
record) which significantly improves dump readability when the panic path
truncates writes mid-record.

The carve-out sits immediately below the ATF region already declared at
0x43000000 in mt7988a.dtsi, so no other reserved-memory child is moved or
resized. BPI-R4 ships with at least 4 GiB of DRAM starting at 0x40000000,
so the region is well within installed memory on every variant.

For the carve-out to actually preserve content across a reset, the boot
loader must also avoid touching this region on warm reset; on standard
BPI-R4 boards with the stock OpenWrt U-Boot fork this already holds.
