I will argue that this is NOT an android-specific issue.  If the goal of
creating an arm64 kernel that will "just work" for a wide range of
hardware configurations without rebuilding is going to happen, we need
to solve this problem with DT.  This goal was one of the original wishes
of the arm64 development effort, let's not loose sight of it as
obviously, this is not working properly just yet.

It just seems that Android is the first one to actually try and
implement that goal :)
