While I haven't used it like that (I did use an FPGA RAM controller, but
that was with a NIOS and not Linux, not HPS), I guess it should work with
my changed. Just disable the 'sdr' node in the devicetree. You'll need a
driver for the FPGA based RAM controller though.

Or, in the setup you mentioned, would the existing driver be the same? I.e.
just use a different base address? Or is it a different IP?
