Hello Tony,

As discussed in [0], there's a regression when booting a kernel with a DTB
that doesn't have a pre-existing chosen node. This is usually not an issue
for most boards since u-boot creates an empty chosen node if isn't present
in the DTB.

But it can be an issue for others bootloaders as Pali pointed out with the
N9/900/950 phones and the Nokia Loader (NoLo).

This patch series add chosen nodes in the top level DTSI for all OMAP SoCs.

Best regards,
Javier
