It good to hear that it works. There is one other board which could
use it. I plan to convert it over for 3.8.
I will take a look at other DT boards and see if there is any patterns
which might help here, for naming of a shared compatibility string.

Great. Please include my CC: when you post it.

Its a good start. However, the Makefile.boot changes were merged in in
arm-soc, and not by the Marvell maintainers in our trees. So changes
across multiple arm platforms are not in Jason's tree. -rc1 will have
all these changes, and forms the best base for a new board.
Thanks
