Subject: [PATCH v2 0/9] ARM: dts: Add compatible property to "partitions" node

	Hi,

As of commit e488ca9f8d4f62c2 ("doc: dt: mtd: partitions: add compatible
property to "partitions" node"), which is in v4.4-rc6, the "partitions"
subnode of an SPI FLASH device node must have a compatible property. The
partitions are no longer detected if it is not present.

However, several DTSes in -next have already been converted to the
"partitions" subnode without "compatible" property, introduced by
commits 5cfdedb7b9a0fe38 ("mtd: ofpart: move ofpart partitions to a
dedicated dt node") and fe2585e9c29a650a ("doc: dt: mtd: support
partitions in a special 'partitions' subnode"). Hence all of these are
now broken in -next, and will be broken in upstream during the merge
window.

This series fixes all users in next-20151221.
Tested on r8a7791/koelsch.

Changes since v1:
  - Add Acked-by,
  - Fix new users in -next (kirkwood, ci20).

Most of these are in arm-soc/for-next. Exceptions are kirkwood (in
mvebu/for-next), and ci20 (in mips/mips-for-linux-next).

Given we're late in the v4.4-rc cycle, perhaps it's easiest if the
arm-soc maintainers take all applicable patches directly, bypassing the
mvebu and shmobile maintainers?

Thanks for queuing for v4.5!
