Recent Linux kernels (at least linux-next and linux-linus, perhaps mingo -tip too) have changes which are incompatible with these older kernels which stop the kernel from booting on Cubietruck (even natively). Despite what I thought there is apparently[0] no ABI here. In any case testing the newer DTBs is desirable so here is a series to switch to doing so. This is all acked but there were some changes suggested along with the acks, which I've made and am posting here. It was all pretty minor so I've kept the acks, I hope that is ok. Ian.
