if you are using Roberts kernel building scripts all you need to do is add the DTS file to /KERNEL/firmware/capes and add it to the build list in /KERNEL/firmware/Makefile . Then run ./tools/rebuild.sh and ./install-kernel.sh. If you plan to distribute it you should try to get it upstream, but for testing/one off this works. I am using this method with an RS232 cape with RTS/CTS on 3.12 kernel.
