Sure! I'll break them up into individual patches as follows:
- Put core components into "core" node of type "simple-bus"
- Put all other peripherals into "soc" node of type "simple-bus"
- Move aliases into bcm-cygnus.dtsi to avoid duplications in all dts files
- Ordered all device nodes under buses based on their base register
addresses
- Remove unused PCI I/O resources
- Use label instead of full path to reference device nodes in dts files

Thanks!
