Folks,
Dave and I have finally comes to an agreement [*1*] about
the new format for some literals in DTS files as supported
by the Device Tree Compiler.
With that, I have just pushed out some changes to the DTC
repository on jdl.com [*2*] that supports the new /dts-v1/
formatted files with C-like literal support.
I encourage everyone to upgrade to this version of the DTC
as soon as they can. Log messages for the three relevant
commits implementing it are below [*3*].
Please let me know if you have any problems with it!
Thanks,
jdl

dtc: -Odts produces v1 output
This patch alters the -Odts mode output so that it uses dts-v1 format.
This means that dtc -Idts -Odts used on a v0 dts file will convert
that file to v1.

dtc: Switch dtc to C-style literals
dtc: Switch dtc to C-style literals
This patch introduces a new version of dts file, distinguished from
older files by starting with the special token /dts-v1/. dts files in
the new version take C-style literals instead of the old bare hex or
OF-style base notation. In addition, the "range" for of memreserve entries
(/memreserve/ f0000-fffff) is no longer recognized in the new format.

dtc: Simplify lexing/parsing of literals vs. node/property names
The current scheme of having CELLDATA and MEMRESERVE states to
recognize hex literals instead of node or property names is
arse-backwards. The patch switches things around so that literals are
lexed in normal states, and property/node names are only recognized in
the special PROPNODENAME state, which is only entered after a { or a
;, and is left as soon as we scan a property/node name or a keyword.
