My bad, turns out I didn't test my dt-schemas patch correctly... looks
like this has been *properly* fixed now in latest dt-schema[1][2], and I
no longer get warnings about the linux,usable-memory-range property.
(There are some new warnings though, for some nodes in exynos4.dtsi that
have 2 reg values, but that's out of scope for this patch.)

Sorry for the general confusion, I'll make sure to double-check my
patches next time...

Best regards
