The final 2 patches are fixes which should end up in mainline, regardless
if this feature is merged or not.

Just in case your serial or MTD-NAND partitions don't work, the drivers
drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_core.c and drivers/mtd/ofpart.c need the
same trivial fix for their initcall level as found in the last two
patches of my series. I'm not going to post these patches now until I've
got some feedback for the other stuff.

And just in case, I also have an idea how to fix such dependencies for drivers without DT (by adding hard-wired dependencies directly to drivers). That would also be usable for ACPI and x86.

But one step after another. Based on my past experiences, I don't even think the stuff I've just posted will ever end up in the kernel.
