The current global search for nodes in reserved_mem_matches can find
nodes outside "/reserved-memory". These nodes might not have actual
memory reserved (via memblock), leading to drivers (e.g., ramoops)
accessing unreserved memory and causing memory corruption.
Prioritize scanning children of "/reserved-memory" to ensure the device
is backed by reserved memory. A fallback is kept for compatibility.
Proper reference counting is also added.
