This was a sort of unfortunate revelation on how things ‘change’.

While as it is, I found this problem, and ‘fixed’ my device tree source, had this been for units ‘fielded’, I have to sleuth through some amount of kernel
code to find where the OF tree was parsed, and then ‘fix’ the kernel, as changing the FDT eeprom image is not really a ‘good’ option for
units that are in use, and need a firmware update.

John Clark.
