Ok~~~

Oh. Right, since we are setting info in kinfo.mem.bank[i], we could infer itself to get the
Next GFN, clever! Thks a lot!

Hmm, I'm kinds of confused the suggestion here. If we using rambase[] here,
then in later double loop, when updating to the next guest bank,  we could
use rambase[gbank] to refer.

Do you want to expand the "device_tree_get_reg" to only cope with "regs" property, 
right now, it passes into cells, "prop->value", the cells of the reg property.
Changing it to that the input parameter will be the device node holding the reg property, like
"device_tree_get_reg(const struct dt_device_node *node, u32 addr_cells, u32 size_cells, struct meminfo *info)"
Or we still retain the original device_tree_get_reg()(maybe, the name shall be changed....), and
Introduce a new function to do what I said above.
