Is the duplicate node checking logic I mentioned in that review gone?
i.e. do we not need an is_xen_node() helper?

Additionally, IMO, this would be easier to follow without the nested
conditionals, e.g.

static int __init dt_scan_depth1_nodes(unsigned long node,
				       const char *uname, int depth,
				       void *data)
{
	/*
	 * Ignore anything not directly under the root node; we'll
	 * catch its parent instead.
	 */
	if (depth != 1)
		return 0;

	if (strcmp(uname, "chosen") == 0)
		return 0;

	if (strcmp(uname, "hypervisor") == 0 &&
	    of_flat_dt_is_compatible(node, "xen,xen"))
		return 0;

	/*
	 * This node at depth 1 is neither a chosen node nor a xen node,
	 * which we do not expect.
	 */
	return 1;
}

Otherwise, this looks fine to me. FWIW, either way:

As this is core arm64 code, I believe you'll need acks from Catalin
and/or Will (and likewise for patch 15), unless I've missed those.

Thanks,
Mark.
