[Pkg-raspi-maintainers] Device tree incomplete?

[Michael Stapelberg]

We take the device tree from the upstream linux kernel. Since there are
quite a number of differences between upstream and the
https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux kernel, differences in the dtbs are to
be expected, too (and I have noticed some others as well).

So, I don’t think the _dtb_ is incomplete, I think the upstreaming efforts
are incomplete :). Eric Anholt is generally knowledgeable with regards to
plans/timelines about upstreaming drivers, so maybe loop him in if you have
some specific questions.
