Ok, that'll be up to Andrew.

Once we have the last few stragglers, and assuming there are no more
NAKs, here's what I'd like to do:

Regrettably, we'll have to revert Simon's dts contributions. I say
'regret' in that I regret having to potentially discourage a valuable
contributor. I *don't* regret him sticking to his guns. :)

As for what to do after that, I think we (the core mvebu folks) should
*not* rewrite the Lacie dts files. That just seems hinky to me.

If there's community interest, someone will crop up who copies one of
the dual licensed dts files and modifies it to boot his/her Lacie board.
When they submit a patch, we'll DCO/SoB double check them and apply the
patch(es).

thx,

Jason.
