+Description:
+		Exports the FDT blob that was passed to the kernel by
+		the bootloader. This allows userland applications such
+		as kexec to access the raw binary. This blob is also
+		useful when debugging since it contains any changes
+		made to the blob by the bootloader.
+
+		The fact that this node does not reside under
+		/sys/firmware/device-tree is deliberate: FDT is also used
+		on arm64 UEFI/ACPI systems to communicate just the UEFI
+		and ACPI entry points, but the FDT is never unflattened
+		and used to configure the system.
+
+		A CRC32 checksum is calculated over the entire FDT
+		blob, and verified at late_initcall time. The sysfs
+		entry is instantiated only if the checksum is valid,
+		i.e., if the FDT blob has not been modified in the mean
+		time. Otherwise, a warning is printed.
