Apart from the current code permitting recreating a 15+ year old firmware bug into completely new platform ports? Because the UEFI stub for arm/arm64 needs to delete all of the "memory" nodes from the DT. And it would be nice to at least not have to compile the "and also delete anything called memory@0" into the arm64 image. Or any image not including support for affected platforms. > > arch/arm/boot/dts/ste-ccu8540.dts | 1 + > > arch/mips/lantiq/dts/easy50712.dts | 1 + > > arch/mips/ralink/dts/mt7620a_eval.dts | 1 + > > arch/mips/ralink/dts/rt2880_eval.dts | 1 + > > arch/mips/ralink/dts/rt3052_eval.dts | 1 + > > arch/mips/ralink/dts/rt3883_eval.dts | 1 + > > I'm not worried about these MIPS dts files because they are all > built-in, but you are breaking compatibility with old dtbs for this > ARM board.
