Just a brief note that I agree with Alexey's recommendation above.
These patches should be reworked in a way that makes the transition
to using the shared dtsi file much more obvious.

Besides making these changes easier to review that way, and giving
better chances to ensuring there are no issues that managed to slip
through the cracks, it will also be much easier later to track down
any possible regressions, in case they eventually are discovered.
