I guess this means a DT must have either isa or isa-base, but not both.
What should QEMU and other platforms which want to provide DTs that work
for older kernels, but also start using the new schema do? I'd guess
they'd like to provide both, where they'd expect isa-base to be used by
newer kernels and isa by the old.

Thanks,
