it seems inconsistent that three architectures would be testing for
that node, but none of the rest. consistency suggests that every
architecture should take it into account, or none should.

  anyway, not a big deal, i'm fine with any decision.

powerpc is the only one of the 3 who has an actual open firmware
implementation afaik.

In any case, I think you can probably remove from microblaze and
possibly mips but I'm a bit worried about the generic case and powerpc
boot.
