In a future land where everything has been converted to devicetree, what
would be best? An option to "Build all kirkwood-based .dtb's", an option
to build all D-link .dtb's, Q-QNAP .dtb's, etc. or an option for each
board? I've not got any strong opinion, so will reformat the above to
whatever is considered best.
Based on Grant's comment, I'll probably be working towards a
MACH_GLOBALSCALE_DT option to catch dreamplug,sheevaplug,guruplug, etc.
Perhaps this should be MACH_BUFFALO_DT?
Thinking about it, MACH_DNSKW_DT would probably be best. Anything
more general, e.g. MACH_DLINK_DNS_DT, would also cover the
orion-based DNS-313/323/343. Presumably there will always be
differences between kirkwood and orion5x?
Hmm, Well, I think I would prefer MACH_DLINK_KIRKWOOD_DT,
MACH_DLINK_ORION5X_DT.  This way, all the dtb's for a given manf/SoC are
built in one go, and the correct board-dt file is built as well.

So, in my case, I would do MACH_GLOBALSCALE_KIRKWOOD_DT, and
MACH_GLOBALSCALE_ARMADA_DT.

Grant, Arnd, sound sensible?
Did you mean D-Link, or is there some relationship between Buffalo
and D-link I'm not aware of? I know Conceptronic sold a ~identical
device to the DNS-323, but not aware of anything else. You never
know who truly makes the devices nowadays anyway.
Nope, just a momentary symlink'd /dev/brain -> /dev/random.  Fixed now,
thanks.

thx,

Jason.
