+Implementation

 To take advantage of the pre-relocation device tree manipulation mechanism,
 boards have to implement the function board_fix_fdt, which has the following

 If this convention is kept, both an "additive" approach, meaning that nodes for
 detected components are added to the device tree, as well as a "subtractive"
 approach, meaning that nodes for absent components are removed from the tree,
 as well as a combination of both approaches should work.
