Or any new v7 SoC. And even poor users of current ARM HW do want use their HW. And they don't care if they have to change the DT if they finally are able to use their board, which happens seldom enough. (I'm not speaking about companies which are able to spend many man-years to fix one kernel version for use with one specific HW).
