f583165f6a [POWERPC] Convert to mac-address for ethernet MAC address data.
Also accept "local-mac-address".  However the old "address"
is now obsolete, but accepted for backwards compatibility.
It should be removed after all device trees have been
converted to use "mac-address".

e8222502ee [PATCH] powerpc: Kill _machine and hard-coded platform numbers
This removes statically assigned platform numbers and reworks the
powerpc platform probe code to use a better mechanism.  With this,
board support files can simply declare a new machine type with a
macro, and implement a probe() function that uses the flattened
device-tree to detect if they apply for a given machine.

We now have a machine_is() macro that replaces the comparisons of
_machine with the various PLATFORM_* constants.  This commit also
changes various drivers to use the new macro instead of looking at
_machine.

c125a1838a [PATCH] powerpc: Add flattened device tree documentation
The flattened device tree is the only supported way of booting ARCH=powerpc
kernels on non Open Firmware machines.  The documentation for the flattened
tree format and contents has been discussed on mailing lists and lately has
been living in the dtc git tree.  Really, it ought to go in the kernel's
Documentation directory for maximum visibility.
