In premise the same code could be used with an ACPI enabled system with
an appropriate service to identify the restricted DMA regions and unlock
them.

More than 1 architecture requiring this function (ARM and ARM64 are the
two I can think of needing this immediately) sort of calls for making
the code architecture agnostic since past 2, you need something that scales.

There is already code today under kernel/dma/contiguous.c that is only
activated on a CONFIG_OF=y && CONFIG_OF_RESERVED_MEM=y system, this is
no different.
