The no-map reserved-memory for tz and smem are missing. Linux doesn't have 
control over these regions and they are placed in the middle of the ram before 
Linux even starts. And u-boot is also not adding these ranges automatically.

    	reserved-memory {
    		#address-cells = <0x1>;
    		#size-cells = <0x1>;
    		ranges;
    
    		smem@87e00000 {
    			reg = <0x87e00000 0x080000>;
    			no-map;
    		};
    
    		tz@87e80000 {
    			reg = <0x87e80000 0x180000>;
    			no-map;
    		};
    	};

This can either (depending on HW/SW configuration) lead to a failed boot [1] 
or to runtime crashes like:

    root@OpenWrt:/# /tmp/memory-allocator-test
    main 0
    [  571.758058] Unhandled fault: imprecise external abort (0xc06) at 0x01715ff8
    [  571.758099] pgd = cebec000
    [  571.763826] [01715ff8] *pgd=8e7fa835, *pte=87e7f75f, *ppte=87e7fc7f
    Bus error

I would not know how to disable QSEE on these boards and thus would assume 
that it should be part of this dtsi.

Kind regards,
