I did try a few things, but still fail to reproduced :/

So this does change how memory appears in /proc/iomem for me switching
from 5.4.101 to v5.4.102 -- for the former d4000000-d7ffffff doesn't
appear at all, and for the latter it appears as 'reserved'.

But still, it never gets accounted as System RAM for me ...

Could you please confirm you get a correct behaviour with 5.10.31 like
Florian? If so, then bisecting to figure out what we're missing in older
LTSes would help, but again it feels like we should just revert -- this
wasn't really a fix in the first place.

Thanks,
Quentin
