I'd rather we killed all the defaults, rather than keep trying to fix
these subtle issues.  That was always my goal of converting to this
model anyway.

However, I think it's important not to loose this information (how many
of us with lots of different platforms want to keep on digging through
PDFs to try and find this documentation?)  I'd like to see a per-SoC
file somewhere in Documentation/arm/ giving these details so at least
they're relatively easy to find.
