With the number of trade names we've already seen with
the TI SoCs, I'd probably prefer arch/arm/boot/dts/ti.
What used to be omap is now dra7 and am437x and so on.

And for timing, doing this just before -rc1 gets tagged
seems like a good time to do it. At least I have still
pending large dts changes waiting that I'd rather not
send a pull request out for until next week :)
