The only minor drawback from my point of view is that you don't see where in the hierarchy the device you're enabling is. But it's really a minor drawback and not everybody agrees that it is actually a drawback. So I'm fine. > I agree that converting the Marvell Armada 32-bits SoCs would produce a > lot of churn.

I was merely pointing out that it is moving away from our 32 bits way of doing things.
