svn commit: r328257 - in head/sys: arm/broadcom/bcm2835 dts/arm modules

[Adrian Chadd]

Hi,

Find the middle ground. Don't dissuade the developer too much.

Here's an example:

Make the driver follow DTS, allow a tunable/kenv check for it to
override whether it needs to be in the DTS or not (the "keep phk happy
for now" compromise) and have it default to obeying the device tree.

That way phk is kept happy and the defaults are the same as normal-ish
ARM /and/ you have a springboard to experiment with extending FDT
overlays at runtime for people who wish to do so.

(I personally hate having to edit the dts/recompile/reboot for every
test hardware change; it makes breadboarding things up kinda
hilariously annoying.)
