Every device tree is required to have a /chosen node. Now
that doesn't mean DTS files need one; there are some more
options:
-- dtc could add the node whenever it is missing from the DTS;
-- it could be made a requirement of the boot loader to add it;
-- the kernel could be taught to fake one if needed.
Pick your poison :-) I prefer the first option (dtc).
