Hi all,
I've reworked the series to use sysfs bin files which has eliminated the problems with filesize from the first version and results in simpler code overall. Even though I'm posting both patches now, there can be a delay between applying the first and the second. After the first one is applied, if CONFIG_PROC_DEVICETREE is turned off then the new kobject code will replace /proc/device-tree. If nobody has any problems with the new interface then the second patch can be applied to drop the old method.
Aside from /proc/device-tree now being a symlink instead of a directory, the existing ABI remains unchanged.
