Tom,

This is the case I explained in another email. These dts files are a
subset of the those in Linux. This patch is not syncing with Linux to
get the identical files, but to change the license to GPLv2 and X11.

We have been maintaining these dts files in U-Boot and they have been
different from Linux from the beginning. If you don't disagree, I tend
to accept this patch for dual licensing.
