Redefine the reference to PcdSystemMemoryBase in HighMemDxe.inf as
a plain [Pcd] rather than [FixedPcd] (and fix up the code as
appropriate). This allows us to align ArmVirtQemuKernel with
ArmVirtQemu, given that the former uses a patchable PCD not a fixed
PCD.

Apologies for the sloppiness on my part, but at least I caught it in time :-)

This change is required before we can start using HighMemDxe in
ArmVirtQemuKernel.

You might also want to port this driver to FdtClientProtocol down the
road :)

Indeed, I realized the same when looking at the code. Another problem
is that this code assumes that each DT node with device_type=memory
describes a single range in its 'reg' property, but in reality, a
single node can describe several disjoint regions. As
Documentation/devicetree/booting-without-of.txt in the linux repo puts
it:

"""
[...]
You can either create a single node with all memory ranges in its reg
property, or you can create several nodes, as you wish.
[...]

Required properties:

- device_type : has to be "memory"
- reg : This property contains all the physical memory ranges of your
board. It's a list of addresses/sizes concatenated together, with the
number of cells of each defined by the #address-cells and #size-cells
of the root node.
"""

The problem is that I am not exactly sure under which circumstances
QEMU produces disjoint memory regions, so I have no simple way of
testing this.

The usual method we follow here:
- look at the QEMU code
- write edk2 code accordingly
- ASSERT() that the data from QEMU still looks the way it looked when we
last looked. :)

We can also ask Shannon about the QEMU behavior (Shannon wrote this
feature for ArmVirtPkg, 68312710615c). CC'ing him.
