Me neither :-)
Looking at the code I am pretty sure a default value would be ok.

I am not sure what the need for MEMORY_RESERVE was for.
It is only used on the uCsimm and uCdimm platforms, which are DragonBall
(68328) based devices. Not obvious to me why it was needed.

Yep, I think that would be fine. Looks to be harmless if set to 0.
