Isn't it more apropriate to create an integrator.dtsi for the common
stuff and include that into integratorap.dts and integratorcp.dts?

Sure, have you applied Nico's patch adding CONFIG_ATAG to and
ARM SoC branch so I can base my patches on it?

I was under the impression that his patch would go through Russell's
tree and I would thus not be able to rely on it until it has landed there
and you have pulled Russell's stuff into your tree.

Currently I would make it impossible to use ATAGs if I do this since
the symbol does not exist, so I really need to base such an
approach in a tree which has CONFIG_ATAG in the first place.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
