First, thank you all for taking a look at my changes!

Will fix in next version if that's ok.

Need to look more into this, but if I remove it, /dev/fb0 is not
available anymore and I get a warning stating:
...
[drm] Supports vblank timestamp caching Rev 2 (21.10.2013).

When I looked in arch/arm/mm/dma-mapping-nommu.c:50, there is a comment stating:

    /*
     * dma_alloc_from_global_coherent() may fail because:
     *
     * - no consistent DMA region has been defined, so we can't
     *   continue.
     * - there is no space left in consistent DMA region, so we
     *   only can fallback to generic allocator if we are
     *   advertised that consistency is not required.
     */

This is the reason I added the reserved-memory.

About the location, does it need to be hardcoded? On my board
(STM32F769I-Disco, tftp boot) in boot log I get:
...
Reserved memory: created DMA memory pool at 0xc0ef1000, size 1 MiB
OF: reserved mem: initialized node linux,dma, compatible id shared-dma-pool

I did not try with XIP. Currently loading zImage from tftp to memory.
Will try with XIP as well, and get back with feedback.

Need to remove this, not needed and causes a warning.
