Re: [PATCH] Open Firmware device tree virtual filesystem

In addition, I haven't given on the idea one day of actually merging the

powerpc and sparc implementation of a lot of that stuff. Mostly the

device-tree accessors proper, the of_device/of_platform bits etc... into

something like drivers/of1394 maybe.

1394?  :-)

Thus if i386 is going to have a device-tree, please use the same
interfaces.

Such a hypothetical "converged" interface would not be
identical to either the current SPARC or the PowerPC
code, nor just a mix of those two.  It's a great plan
to try to get to this eventually, but it will take time.
A lot of it perhaps.
