Is it somehow possible that this device tree stuff is *not* changed over and over again and break everything out there? When people have not even agreed on basic things like decimal vs. hex numbers, the whole idea should be developed out-of-tree, then stabilize and *then* be submitted to the Linux mainline. Is it also really necessary to change like "gpt" vs. "timer" and "pic" vs. "interrupt-controller" all the time? If you compare the last mainline kernels, each one got a fundamental change in the naming, each time breaking anyone who doesn't have his stuff in the mainline yet. Sorry, but this is simply annoying, and the whole "the only thing we have to do is to define it once and be done then" is crap. Robert -- Dipl.-Ing.
