Hello,
This all looks good. I just have a couple of comments about the cpus node.

You can drop the unit address from the cpu node - it's meant to be there to
differentiate multiple nodes (and is supposed to match the reg property, which
the 1176jzf-s can't have, as it doesn't have an MPIDR).
Also, "arm,arm1176jzf-s" isn't listed in the binding doc. There was a question
about how to maintain this list [1], but I can't seem to find a conclusion, if
any were reached. It might be worth appending "arm,arm1176" to the compatible
list for the cpu node in case we want to enable something via dt for all 1176
variations.
Dave, Lorenzo, any thoughts?

Thanks,
Mark.
