Re: [PATCH v2 1/3] dt-bindings: reserved-memory: ramoops: Update the binding

[Krzysztof Kozlowski <krzysztof.kozlowski@linaro.org>]

Subject: drop second/last, redundant "binding". The "dt-bindings" prefix
is already stating that these are bindings.

Your subject says nothing. Everything is "update".

So what exactly can be here reserved dynamically? And what does it mean
'dynamically'? By whom? How is this property of hardware (not OS)?

There is no such property. You cannot require it.

Node names should be generic, no underscores in node names.

Any reason in naming it differently then existing one? You have there
example.
