You can always remove them using /delete-node/, which also has the advantage of reminding you not to leave a single dangling endpoint. > I would like to be able to force the use of a particular CRTC for > certain outputs even though the hardware is capable of connecting any > CRTC to any output.

I don't know that any driver depends on being able to parse disabled endpoints, but given the above I'm not sure that keeping disabled endpoints in the device tree is a useful feature. Disabling ports makes more sense to me. It should be documented in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/graph.txt though. > -- >8 -- > diff --git a/drivers/of/base.c b/drivers/of/base.c > index 017dd94..1e56b91 100644 > --- a/drivers/of/base.c > +++ b/drivers/of/base.c > @@ -2143,7 +2143,7 @@ struct device_node *of_graph_get_port_by_id(struct device_node *parent, u32 id) > if (node) > parent = node; > > - for_each_child_of_node(parent, port) { > + for_each_available_child_of_node(parent, port) { > u32 port_id = 0; > > if (of_node_cmp(port->name, "port") != 0) > @@ -2209,7 +2209,7 @@ struct device_node *of_graph_get_next_endpoint(const struct device_node *parent, > * getting the next child.
