Has any luck in using the device trees (dtb files) on arm machines?  Things do 
not seem to be working with the tegra-trimslice.dtb and 
CONFIG_ARM_APPENDED_DTB=y for me.

I have been looking at Red hat Bug 741325 (ARM fc14 kernels does not provide 
hardware perf counter support). I suspect the reason that performance 
monitoring hardware is not working on my trimslice because it isn't using a 
device tree.  The performance monitoring hardware is never getting registered 
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=741325#c18). I have made a 
tegra-trimslice.dtb, appended it to the vmlinuz file (suppose to work kernel 
built with CONFIG_ARM_APPENDED_DTB=y in the config file), done a mkimage on the 
resulting concatenated file. and attempted to boot the machine. However, it 
seem to hang right after "Staring kernel ..." message.
