is there still any need PPC checking for "chosen@0"?

  given that there are no .dts files in the current kernel code base
that define the node name "/chosen@0" instead of the proper "/chosen",
is there any need for arch/powerpc/boot/oflib.c to still make this
test:

        chosen = of_finddevice("/chosen");
        if (chosen == (phandle) -1) {
                chosen = of_finddevice("/chosen@0");   <--- this
                if (chosen == (phandle) -1) {
                        printf("no chosen\n");
                        return 0;
                }
        }

are there still PPC machines that require the recognition of
"/chosen@0"?
