Re: [PATCH mvebu + mvebu/dt64 4/4] arm64: dts: marvell: armada-37xx: move firmware node to generic dtsi file

I disagree with this patch. This firmware is specific to Turris MOX so
it is not something that should be exposed to all the Armada 3700 based
boards.

If you want you still can create an dtsi for this and include it when
needed.
