[RFC] arm: Remove sa1111 special case from mm setup code

[Grant Likely]

I don't think this special case is needed anymore. From what I can tell,
setup_dma_zone() takes care of marking the region to be reserved for
DMA, and that happens before arm_memblock_init() which calls
arm_mm_memblock_reserve(). Therefore the mm setup should already know
about the reserved region and it won't need to be explicitly reserved
and then freed. That means the special case can be dropped from the
common code.

Hi Russell and Nicolas,

I really don't know if this is correct. The MM code is not my strong
area. Please take a look.

Thanks,
g.
