The i.MX23 / i.MX28 have a small amount of On-Chip RAM which is also necessary for suspend to RAM and standby mode. But before we need to remove the fake reg properties of all internal bus nodes as discussed in this thread [1].

This patch series requires Fabio Estevam's recent series "ARM: dts: imx23:
Remove skeleton.dtsi inclusion" [2].

The page cannot be reached. I would like to understand the background for this change.

Strange, because i don't have any problems while clicking on the URL.

It's an older discussion on the devicetree / kernel newbie mailing list with subject "strange dtc errors after adding sram node". Arnd suggested in the discussion to remove the reg property from the ahb node.

Please try this one: http://www.spinics.net/lists/newbies/msg57652.html

If you go through 'Table 4-1. Address Map for i.MX28' of MCIMX28RM, you should be able to find there are 3 AHB buses: ahb at 0, ahb at 80080000 and ahb at c0000000. The ocram goes to ahb at 0. The following change should be the right one for ocram addition.
