I did. My 00 patch mentioned that these were all clean-ups/bug fixes 
destined for the for RCs.

So it looks like this may have been my fault when testing the patch-set 
before this one. There are some hacks required to test Device Tree with 
Snowball at the moment, as the u-boot we use isn't DT compatible yet. I 
_may_ have (i.e. my best guess is that I) tested the patch-set in it's 
purest form, thus omitting the ARM_APPENDED_DTB_FILE hack required to 
append the DTB onto the kernel. Without it, the kernel just boots using 
the original platform code.

A genuine mistake on my part for which I unreservedly apologise.

Nevertheless, these two patches are required for a decent boot.
