Cubox is Dove, which dates from way before DT on ARM, and there's
relatively few people working on Dove support, so progress towards
DT support is rather slow there.  I believe it to be at the point
where it's possible to boot the Cubox using DT, but not all features
are supported.

But then, not all features of the Dove SoC are supported in mainline
either; the port essentially stopped after a little more than basic
support was merged.  Eg, no hardware monitoring driver, no video
drivers, etc...
