Hi Mark,

That was my initial thought, but the problem is that different instances
may have different configurations.

We don't really have a way of validating the configuration here, since
it's typically generated by TI's PPC3 tool.

If you think it's still inappropriate to supply the configuration in the
device-tree, do you have any suggestions?

Cheers,
Daniel
