Too lazy to split the patch into bite-size chunks, you mean ;-)

Anyway, here goes the DTS bits:

+/*
+ * PReP skeleton device tree
+ *
+ * Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
+ */
+
+/ {
+	device_type = "prep";
+	model = "IBM,PReP";

Not specific enough, leave it out or fill it in in the bootwrapper.

+	compatible = "prep";

Maybe fill this in, too.

+	#address-cells = <1>;
+	#size-cells = <1>;
+
+	cpus {
+		#address-cells = <1>;
+		#size-cells = <0>;
+
+		cpu@0 {

Do all (supported) PReP boards have one CPU only?

+			device_type = "cpu";
+			reg = <0>;
+			clock-frequency = <0>; // filled in by bootwrapper
+			bus-frequency = <0>; // filled in by bootwrapper
+			timebase-frequency = <0>; // filled in by bootwrapper
+			i-cache-line-size = <0>; // filled in by bootwrapper
+			d-cache-line-size = <0>; // filled in by bootwrapper
+			d-cache-size = <0>; // filled in by bootwrapper
+			i-cache-size = <0>; // filled in by bootwrapper
+			external-control;

Really?

+			graphics;
+			performance-monitor;
+
+			l2-cache {
+				device_type = "cache";
+				i-cache-size = <00100000>;
+				d-cache-size = <00100000>;
+				i-cache-sets = <00008000>;
+				d-cache-sets = <00008000>;
+				i-cache-line-size = <00000020>;
+				d-cache-line-size = <00000020>;

Drop the leading zeroes, they make my head spin :-)

+				cache-unified;
+			};
+		};
+	};
+
+	memory {
+		device_type = "memory";
+		// dummy range here, zImage wrapper will fill in the actual
+		// amount of memory from the residual data
+		reg = <00000000 00000000>;
+	};
+
+	pci@80000000 {
+		device_type = "pci";
+		compatible = "prep";

Is that specific enough?

I can't believe this "ranges" and interrupt mapping will
work on all PReP systems...

"pnpPNP,501", "pnpPNP,500" I'd say.  Many/some device
tree users will only care it is _some_ 8250 family thing.

What is the plan here -- have the bootwrapper build the
device tree / fill in the details from the residual data?
