(as a matter of fact, the more I think about those .dts's, the more it 
seems to me like they belong to bootloaders, not in the kernel... Just 
one word - information duplication...)
Well, that's a completely separate issue altogether.
that's why I put it in brackets:-)
I believe that they are 
kept with the kernel as a convenience, so that we all have more control over 
their contents.
yeah... I read a __part__ of those lengthy discussions... Not willing to 
re-start them here, just couldn't help...

Another thing, Timur, if you respin your patch, could you do it against 
the current powerpc.git? There's at least one more .dts there that also 
would need boot-cpu removed - kuroboxHD.dts.
My patch already removes linux,boot-cpu from kuroboxHD.dts:
diff --git a/arch/powerpc/boot/dts/kuroboxHG.dts 
"HD" and "HG" are not the same - it's a new file in git now...

Thanks
Guennadi
