I haven't been able to grasp the purpose of making the smem addresses
completely dynamic. As far as I can see there might be use cases where
certain devices needs to move the smem region from the default area.
But even so, it's not dynamically choosen so it's in essence static -
so we can just encode it in the individual dts files.
