Hey everyone.  Did we scare you perhaps a bit too much?  Sorry.  We're
not going to be dropping boards quite just yet as we have a few
drivers yet that need converting and that in turn is what's blocking
some amount of easy mass conversion.  That said, does your board set
CONFIG_OF_CONTROL and related?  If not, you do indeed have some work
to go and do or the platform will be dropped.  Not immediately but we
have come far enough along in our conversions that as a general rule,
you should be using DM in full U-Boot and figuring out how to use DM
in SPL (and if there's some problem, speaking up so we can figure out
a solution).  Thanks all!
