I concur.  If you really have to use the old kernel, you could manually update the dts to dts-v1 without making other changes, which
should be relatively simple - that's just a matter of changing all
numbers in the file from bare hex to C-style (decimal by default, 0x
for hex, etc.) and adding the magic /dts-v1/ tag at the top.
