Clarifying the documentation would be great. It's documented in the ePAPR spec: "The device_type property was used in IEEE 1275 to describe the device’s FCode programming model. Because ePAPR does not have FCode, new use of the property is deprecated, and it should be included only on cpu and memory nodes for compatibility with IEEE 1275–derived device trees." The bottom line is - don't use it, unless you've good good reasons?
