Which predated FDT support in Linux by more than a decade, with the latter predating even p1275?
While I see merit in compatibility with other existing OSes, I prefer not to deviate from standard DT bindings, if they exist.
Over time, we've even migrated from Renesas-specific DT bindings to standard DT bindings, in already upstreamed SoC support.
If needed, I guess a script can be written to convert DTS files from the old to the new syntax?
Thanks!
