okay, I understand the point, and I agree.  However I've also received
the comment that this document also needs to address boards with real
OFW, and that booting_without_of.txt is kind of limited in that regard

Perhaps it would be better to split off a 'device tree binding
conventions' document; use booting_without_of.txt to describe the
mechanism for non-OFW ports, and use another doc to describe layout
expectation/conventions for common SoC's and devices.

I'm about to post a patch set for the 52xx boards which includes this
document.  For the time being, I'm going to leave the document as is
because I haven't had a chance to do any revision, but I'll take a
look at shuffling stuff around once the 52xx patches are suitable for
inclusion in .20

Cheers,
g.
