So, like, the other day David Gibson mumbled:
> This patch adds a handful of simple testcases for dtc. It adds a dts
> file which should generate the same sample tree as is used for the
> libfdt testcases, and tests invoking dtc on this dts, plus the
> standard batch of libfdt cases on the resulting dtb, which effectively
> checks that the dtb is correct.
>
> Because the test framework assumes each testcase is an executable with
> the right output conventions, we use a little shell script, dtc.sh, as
> a wrapper around dtc itself. It simply invokes dtc and returns a PASS
> or FAIL depending on whether dtc returned an error.
>
> It's not much, but it's a start.

Applied.

No problem. Too bad you can't just use git, though... :-)
