[PATCH 0/4] Device Tree Quirks & the Beaglebone

From: Pantelis Antoniou
Date: Wed Feb 18 2015 - 09:59:49 EST


The following patchset introduces Device Tree quirks which
apply right after unflattening. Quirks allow using a single
device tree blob to support revisions of a single board.

This makes deployment easier, since there is no need to modify
the bootloader environment, and allow booting using a very small
bootloader shim with a resulting decrease in boot time which
is extremely important in various use-cases.

For details please look at Documentation/devicetree/quirks.txt

This patch has an implicit dependency on a previous patch
"of: Custom printk format specifier for device node" for debugging
prints of device nodes.

arm: of: Add a DT quirk method after unflattening
