Disabling legacy support doesn't mean that: - the HW isn't present - the associated regions are not useful Here, we describe the HW, not the usage you make of it. And unless you think that having working virtualization is completely useless, I strongly suggest that you properly document the HW in the device tree. Thanks, M. -- Jazz is not dead.
