Why not (also) map the ones where it isn't allowed? You probably can't count on 
routing software implementing all country specific defaults (at least currently 
it isn't the case with the popular osm-based ones, so they need specific advice 
from the mappers in order to work well).

To make sure that this is an relative exceptional situation in the context 
(country), for your fellow mappers? in any case you could also map the traffic 
sign, so your precious surveyed "insider knowledge" has better chances to 
persist in the db.

From a practical point of view, routing engines will generally be very 
reluctant to suggest u-turns, because they tend to take a lot of time or might 
even be close to impossible (with lots of traffic). 

This said, I could imagine restriction=allowed like you suggested. Logically, 
restriction=no would also make sense, but it bears the risk of being 
interpreted falsely (if someone checks for restriction=no* as short way for 
no_left_turn, no_right_turn etc.)

cheers,
Martin
