It don't feel its a mishmash of crap its just how things are  
defined.  Maybe the SOC node was a mistake, but I think we are past  
the point of return on that.

Having one platform's device tree be different just creates confusion  
to our customers.  While there isn't anything technically wrong with  
what your proposing it will cause support issues down the line which  
I want to avoid.
