That's not what I meant. What I don't understand is: what's so special
about the 8272 that its DTS should have a 'chosen' section, but no other
DTS needs one?
Obviously, the kernel needs a 'chosen' section, and that's why U-Boot
adds one. And since U-Boot adds one, the DTS itself doesn't need one.
Does the 8272 never use U-Boot?
