You are right, Alexey doesn't provide any exact *.dts file for any
board, and *.dtsi file should be included somewhere, otherwise this is
dead code.
Unfortunately, our internal board *.dts file is useless for kernel
community, cause there is not any chance to burn locally compiled kernel
to our product due to secureboot protection.
But I think there is one possible option. We have reference Amlogic
boards somewhere in the office. So we can test 32-bit configuration on
it and prepare proper *.dts file for that. What do you think, it
reasanoble?
