Upstream libfdt was fixed back in 2009. Why is U-Boot and Linux so outdated?
Shouldn't there be a regular plan to update U-boot and Linux as libfdt is
updated? I don't see how an 18-month backlog is acceptable.
No offense, but this sounds like something the U-boot fdt maintainer is supposed
to be doing regularly.
