Hi Russell,
Here's the current state of the device tree patches for basic infrastructure support. It's pretty much the same as the last series I sent to you, except I've dropped the patches that add .dts files and board support simply because the final location for storing .dtb files is still up in the air.
After hearing from multiple people this week at UDS, and specifically having a long conversation about it with tglx, I'd really think it's time to start getting some wider testing in linux-next since it has seemed to be quite stable for a while now. In fact, I want to put it in right now so that there is the /option/ of getting it into 2.6.40 with a separate pull request near the end of the merge window (I'm not asking you to commit to merging it, but it isn't even an option if it isn't in linux-next).
Right now it merges cleanly with linux-next and the resulting tree builds and boots at least on qemu. Unless you really object, I'm going to ask Stephen to add the following branch to the /end/ of the list of trees for linux-next so it can easily be dropped it if it causes any problems.
