I think i've already said that would be a good idea. It makes the
problem less critical. But the problem is still there, we are just
kicking the can down the road. I've not seen much activity actually
fixing the broken DT. So i suspect when we catch up with the can, we
will mostly still be in the same place. Actually, maybe worse, because
broken DTs have been copy/pasted for new boards?
