I've not heard they are going to be removed....

Having work on mvebu, and a Freescale Vybrid board, i see two
different styles. mvebu defines all the common pinctrl values in the
.dtsi file, so making the .dts file pretty minimalist. For the vybrid
board there was nothing in the .dtsi file, the dts file is huge, and i
made at least one error, missing at required pin which took me a while
to debug.

I would also say cluttered .dtb because of unused nodes it a compiler
issue. Why does it not optimise them out?
