While this touches fdt_support.[ch] which is nominally "mine", it is 
coupled with the Freescale support.  I could make you break it into two, 
but then I would have to do more work and you (and wd) would have to 
make sure they went into u-boot in the right order.  That sounds ugly, 
so I would prefer Kumar apply it to his subrepo to feed into u-boot.
