Correct they are different, but smem covers both of those and allocations are
only supposed to be done in the first of these.

And I forgot to mention that I have the following in my dt:

/ {
        reserved-memory {
                #address-cells = <1>;
                #size-cells = <1>;
                ranges;

                smem at fa00000 {
                        #memory-region-cells = <0>;
                        reg = <0x0fa00000 0x200000>;
                        no-map;
                };
        };
};
