Yes, you're right.  It's broken on i.MX6DL/S indeed.  The cause is that
i.MX6DL/S DTBs are using the same GPT compatible string as i.MX6Q.  It
effectively makes kernel select an incorrect GPT device type on
i.MX6DL/S.  We will need to update i.MX6DL/S device tree to use
a correct compatible string.  But to keep the existing DTBs continue
working, we need the following change.  As I'm asked by Arnd to rebase
my branch, I would like fold the changes into the original patch to
save the git bisect issue.

Thanks for the bug report, and sorry for the breakage.

Shawn
