Great work!

I think the generic kirkwood device nodes should all be part of
the kirkwood.dtsi file, except for any properties you want to
override.

You can add a status="disabled" property in device nodes
that may not be connected in individual boards, and then
just override it by listing status="enabled" in the board.dts
file, without having to duplicate all the other properties.

I would also suggest to change the kirkwood.dtsi layout to
put all the on-chip peripherals from the 0xf1 section into
one bus in the device tree, like

	ocp at f1000000 {
		compatible = "simple-bus";
		ranges = <0xf1000000 0xf1000000 0x1000000>;
		#address-cells = 1;
		#size-cells = 1;

		serial at f1012000 {
			...
		};

		...
	};

Or even use the ranges property to remap everything into
a simpler address range:

	ocp at f1000000 {
		compatible = "simple-bus";
		ranges = <0 0xf1000000 0x1000000>;
		#address-cells = 1;
		#size-cells = 1;

		serial at 12000 {
			reg = <0x12000 0x100>;
			...
		};

		...
	};
