[PATCH 3/4] Implements a new feature for deleting existing properties in device tree nodes.

John Bonesio bones at secretlab.ca
Wed Nov 3 09:55:21 EST 2010


When updating existing nodes in a device tree merge operation, properties
can be removed by using
	/remove-prop/ <property>;

If a property has been removed, it is treated the same as if it had not been
declared.
