If I've understood Koen correctly then what he's saying is that if you
*were* to use the current (before this patch) am335x-bone.dts on a
Beagle Bone Black (which would be wrong, as that's not the board you
have...) then things would break.
I don't see that this patch fixes that - as far as I can see, even after
the patch, using am335x-bone.dts with a Bone Black will risk the damage?
If so, I don't think this is a 'stable fix' kind of thing, as it doesn't
actually fix the problem?
Koen - is there a way for a booting kernel to detect which board it is
on and avoid any potential damage if someone gives it the wrong DT?
