But more importantly, why bother upstreaming your DT into the kernel tree if your firmware is going to overwrite whatever we provide? Either the firmware let the user provide its own DT (and doesn't touch it other than to change the CPU enable method, insert a /memreserve/ or similar things), or the firmware always provide its own DT, and doesn't let the user provide its own. Corrupting the user DT is a disaster, as we just found.
