I definitely agree with the long-term goal. > Also, I have a feeling that not all legacy boards will get converted > over.

I think for many of them, we can do a 'blind' conversion to DT, and ask the users who have posted patches or even submitted support for those boards to test the DT. But I don't think we should move things into mach-mvebu if there are still legacy non-DT Kirkwood platforms supported in mach-kirkwood. So either we convert them to the DT, or we remove the support for them if no-one is really interested. But I believe in most cases, converting them to DT should be quite easy.
