Agreed. In addition to ATAGs, we need to also consider the large chunks
of data in kernel that Linus originally complained about. We absolutely don't
want to have the same in two places both in .dts files and in platform data
for things like mux, clocks, hwmod data etc.

So we need to make sure the DT append support works transparently for
existing bootloaders so we can just drop the the old data instead of
keeping it around.
