To allow more robust association of each network device node with an
index (such as is used by the firmware or an EEPROM to indicate MAC
addresses), a network device's node may specify the index explicitly.

This patch updates booting-without-of.txt to describe version 17 of
the flattened device tree format. Version 17 is a small, backwards
compatible change from version 16, adding an extra field giving the
size of the device tree's structure block. At this time, the kernel
has no use for the extra information, however its presence can make
life easier for bootloaders or other software manipulating the tree.
In addition this patch adds information on the size_dt_strings field
of the device tree header, present since version 3 of the flattened
tree format, but omitted from the documentation. It also makes
changes to consistently refer to versions 16 and 17 as versions 16 and
17 in decimal, rather than version 0x10 which was occasionally used
for version 16 previously.
Finally, we also add the new field to the definition of the device
tree header structure in prom.h

The 'linux,boot-cpu' property is obsolete, so remove it from all of the DTS
files and from booting-without-of.txt. The boot CPU is actually defined in
the device tree header, and U-Boot sets that field. The device tree compiler
also complains if the property exists.

This removes statically assigned platform numbers and reworks the
powerpc platform probe code to use a better mechanism. With this,
board support files can simply declare a new machine type with a
macro, and implement a probe() function that uses the flattened
device-tree to detect if they apply for a given machine.
We now have a machine_is() macro that replaces the comparisons of
_machine with the various PLATFORM_* constants. This commit also
changes various drivers to use the new macro instead of looking at
_machine.

The flattened device tree is the only supported way of booting ARCH=powerpc
kernels on non Open Firmware machines. The documentation for the flattened
tree format and contents has been discussed on mailing lists and lately has
been living in the dtc git tree. Really, it ought to go in the kernel's
Documentation directory for maximum visibility.
