I don't see the merge as changing the actual code that gets executed
on any given platform very much, except in one respect: we are going
to standardize on a flattened device tree as the way that information
about the platform gets passed from the boot loader to the kernel.
Comments? Flames? :)
There are several userspace applications that parse the non-flat device
tree in /proc/device-tree on pSeries. While I like the idea of the
flattened device tree I think we need to consider how many apps we are
going to break with it.
