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. g.
