Subject: Re: [PATCH 2/3] ARM: dts: rockchip: add missing @0 to memory
 nodenames

Hi Heiko,

Goal was to reduce the error output of existing code a little bit,
so that we can use it for the review of new patches.
Some questions:
As I don't have the hardware, where else is coreboot used?
Is this a rk3288-veyron.dtsi problem only?
ie. Is it a option to produce a patch serie v2 without veyron?
Can someone help testing?

Johan

Any suggestion/feedback rapport welcome.
