Thanks, looks like this needs to be fixed in the merge, so I'll merge omap-for-v3.8/cleanup-headers-prepare-multiplatform-v3 into omap-for-v3.8/dt and resolve the conflict according to your patch.

When booting with device-tree the kernel is panicing in the probe of the DMTIMER driver. The panic is caused because the pointer to platform_data structure is NULL when booting with device-tree and the driver is attempting to access the structure without checking if the pointer is valid. Fix this by moving the code that accesses the platform data structure under the "else" clause of the "if (dev->of_node)" statement because here the pointer to platform_data is guaranteed to be valid. The code accessing the "timer_capability" member of the platform data is simply removed as this is already handled under the else clause. This regression was introduced while integrating commit "ARM: OMAP: Add DT support for timer driver" to add device-tree support to the DMTIMER driver and commit "ARM: OMAP: Move omap-pm-noop.c local to mach-omap2" to prepare for single zImage support.
