Nikita, may I ask you to rebase this patch series on latest master?
Sure, I'll do it in a couple of days.
I'm sorry, currently I'm a bit busy, I started to work on the Heinrich's suggestion to use EFI to update devicetree but didn't finish it yet. Probably we can add this part later in the other patch(set). What do you think?

When it is
ready I will take a look at it in a week or two. Sorry,
I should do this earlier but I am plowing through backlog and trying to
not get more stalled patches.

Daniel
