Thanks for the changes, but that's not correct reason to remove DTS
code. What kernel supports or not, should be irrelevant for the DTS. DTS
for example is used in other projects - did you check if they have the
same issues? Anyway, DTS describes the hardware, so how current kernel
support defines what is and what is not in the hardware?


Best regards,
