Unlike platform data, we do not require or even expect that all DT users
be present in mainline, so absence if references to a feature in kernel
can not serve as justification for removal. Consider the fact that we
support DT-style binding in ACPI (which is BIOS/firmware).

That said, I am not against removing this support, but we need to make
sure that Android (where this came from) does not use this anymore.

Thanks.
