I had to read this ten times before understanding what was meant :-)


Also, why is there a special header for this in the device tree
blob?  It could just have reused /chosen/cpu (with an identity
ihandle>phandle mapping perhaps) -- just like the /aliases node
could be used for aliases, instead of this new labels scheme.

Why reinvent the wheel :-)


Patch looks good of course.
