still unclear on a couple DT questions from my initial post

["Robert P. J. Day" <rpjday-L09J2beyid0N/H6P543EQg@public.gmane.org>]

  again, more nitpicky pedantry, but from my initial post, i'm still
unclear on a couple things.

  first, a number of powerpc .dts files contain the line:

    dcr-parent = <&{/cpus/cpu@0}>;

and it's not clear to me why there are curly braces there. that is the
only example of that, but i see no mention of that in the spec. is it
meaningful? or are they superfluous?

  also, the spec states that status could be set to "okay", but a pile
of .dts files in the current kernel have the shorter form:

  status = "ok";

and the current kernel code in drivers/of explicitly accepts both
forms. is that a formal spec property, or is the kernel code simply
allowing people to be sloppy?

  i think that's it for now, thanks for your patience.
