Two partitions at same place are bad news... >=20 > Please expand on "bad news"? What are the runtime effects of this > change? Decisions about which kernel(s) to patch depend on this info. Well... two partitions at same place. If you use one, you will corrupt information on the other one. OTOH this moves partition around (so that they don't overlap) so it is probably not stable candidate. I guess this is not huge issue; people using these boards probably have custom dts changes, anyway...
