People updating dts files by patch would also have to update the dtb, which can't be done in a normal patch, since they're binary. I'm working with sfr now on importing dtc into the kernel tree. -- David Gibson | I'll have my music baroque, and my code david AT gibson.dropbear.id.au | minimalist, thank you.
