IIUC, device-tree should be considered to be "written in stone" for a consumer 
device and hence firmware property isn't something that could be easily 
changed. The kernel-parameter will be much more universal. Anyway the global 
whitelisting should be a different topic for discussion, right now we need a 
kind of private whitelisting that is internal to kernel.
