        Like I said previously, I think we first need guidelines on what

    Didn't we already say that it was just the same rules as for things tht
    get included in .S files?  Besides for plain .dts files (as opposed to
    .dtsi files) it seems like if people break things they get to keep all
    the pieces without disrupting other people too much.


Yes, but can we document that. Also, I'd like others with more DT
historical knowledge to weigh in.
OK. What's the appropriate file to document that in? I assume you're not
just looking for an explanation in the commit description?
