Instead of using a fixed address here, why not use 'alloc-ranges' to
specify a valid range and let the kernel decide on where to reserve the
1MB area?

As mentioned for the other patch, I would prefer a universal default for
the memory node in a dtsi that can be used by all imx8ulp boards. See
[1] for the i.MX93 proposal.
