SubjectRe: [PATCH 0/6] Introducing Device Tree Overlays
From
I like where this is heading.  I'm interested in a use case where IP
can be loaded into a FPGA, then add a blob to the device tree and load
some drivers.

I see your github tree. If I wanted to cherry-pick your code and play
around with it, which branch should I use? not-capebus-21?

Thanks,
