Hello Tony, As discussed in [0], there's a regression when booting a kernel with a DTB that doesn't have a pre-existing chosen node. This is usually not an issue for most boards since u-boot creates an empty chosen node if isn't present in the DTB. But it can be an issue for others bootloaders as Pali pointed out with the N9/900/950 phones and the Nokia Loader (NoLo). This patch series add chosen nodes in the top level DTSI for all OMAP SoCs.
