Open Firmware Flat Tree and usage.
----------------------------------
As part of the ongoing cleanup of the Linux PPC trees, the preferred
way to pass bootloader and board setup information is the open
firmware flat tree.
Please take a look at the following email discussion for some
background.

The generated tree is part static and part dynamic.
There is a static part which is compiled in with DTC and a dynamic
part which is programmatically appended.
You'll need a fairly recent DTC tool, which is available by git at
rsync://ozlabs.org/dtc/dtc.git
The xxd binary dumper is needed too which I got from
ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/utilities/etc/xxd-1.10.tar.gz
