cool, that sounds great, thanks.

yeah the usb nodes should be ready pretty soon, I have seen them 
circulating already.

btw, what was it that triggered our discussion?  it is not like any of 
the dts files for armv8 boards are verbatim copies of what you find in 
the kernel.

Is there a new rule -explicit somewhere?- enforcing that this has to be 
the case then?
