From 5d85a8478ec8a1956f08ad72d1601a3c5cb60b1e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hans de Goede Date: Tue, 18 Nov 2014 12:10:50 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] dt-bindings: simplefb: Drop the advice about using a specific path for nodes This goes contrary to how devicetree usually works, so drop it. Instead if the firmware needs to be able to find a specific node it should use a platform specific compatible + properties for this.
