Subject: [PATCHv3] ARM:boot:device tree: Allow the device tree binary to be appended to zImage
Date: Mon, 9 May 2011 04:23:53 -0700	[thread overview]

I suggest adding something like this to the description:

Note that a follow-up patch is needed to add checking for
kernel BSS overlapping the device tree data.

Other than that, I got /proc/device-tree entries showing up with
this patch + the uncompress fixes + the kernel BSS check I posted
as a reply to this thread, so:
