ramoops: use DT reserved-memory bindings

Instead of a ramoops-specific node, use a child node of /reserved-memory.
This requires that of_platform_device_create() be explicitly called
for the node, though, since "/reserved-memory" does not have its own
"compatible" property.

 2. Setting the parameters
 
-Setting the ramoops parameters can be done in 3 different manners:
- 1. Use the module parameters (which have the names of the variables described
