booting-without-of.rstt is an ancient document that first outlined
Flattened DeviceTree on PowerPC initially. The DT world has evolved a

The name of the document itself is confusing if you don't understand the
evolution from real 'OpenFirmware'. Most of what booting-without-of.rst
contains is now in the DT specification (which evolved out of the
ePAPR). The few things that weren't documented in the DT specification
are now.

All that remains is the boot entry details, so let's move these to arch
specific documents. The exception is arm which already has the same
details documented.
