Good point.  I can remove the reference to the ePAPR from this file.

I don't see any.

Table 3.7.1 "General Properties of CPU nodes" was slightly
re-ordered, but the same properties are listed in both documents.

I don't think that the boot requirements removal impacts this
file.

Am I missing something?
