Add device tree files for Broadcom Northstar based SVKs.  Since the
bcm5301x.dtsi already exists, all that is necessary is the dts files to
enable the UARTs (and specify the RAM size for the 4708/9).  With these
files, the SVKs are able to boot to shell.

Currently the files are named beginning with the chip name something
like this should fit better the other naming schema:
arch/arm/boot/dts/bcm4708-brcm-bcm94708.dts

The compatible string should also contain this exactly board like this:
compatible = "brcm,bcm94708", "brcm,bcm4708";

Instead of using mem=128M you should add an extra node like this:

	memory {
		reg = <0x00000000 0x08000000>;
	};

Does this board only has 128M of RAM? currently we restrict all of them
to that, but I just want to know.

Better this:
compatible = "brcm,bcm94709", "brcm,bcm4709", "brcm,bcm4708";

Why is no memory size given here at all?

Just out of curiosity on what does this clock frequency depend? I saw
your patch adding a real clock driver which should make this obsolete.

Sorry, I was following the namign schema that we've been using on
other Broadcom SVKs in the Linux device tree directory.  For example,
arch/arm/boot/dts/bcm911360_entphn.dts
arch/arm/boot/dts/bcm911360k.dts
arch/arm/boot/dts/bcm958300k.dts
arch/arm/boot/dts/bcm958305k.dts
arch/arm/boot/dts/bcm958625k.dts
arch/arm/boot/dts/bcm963138dvt.dts

Also, this is the name we have been using internally.  So, it will
making migrating to newer kernels much easier.

The 4708/9 SVKs have 128M, but the 53012 has 256M.

It seems to me that this who 4708 base is kind of a misnomer.  They
really are "Northstar".  Would it not be more accurate to change it to
be
compatible = "brcm,bcm4709", "brcm,ns";
?

I'll add the 256M.

Better to add this now, as the device tree part might be out of sync
for a time.  Also, is it not better to make the UARTs a static clock
and not dependent on the clk driver?

Thanks,

Sure, this can potentially be a reason to not using the real clock node
and just use a hardcoded clock frequency for now, until the other clock
change is merged, then you can submit another patch to use it.

Also, is it not better to make the UARTs a static clock

I disagree. You should always use the real clock driver for querying the
clock frequency, in the case when the clock driver is available.

Today one can change the core clock for UART in the bootloader for
various reasons (and we saw that happening a lot in the past), which in
this case will make your kernel not seeing any console output.

By always querying the clock rate based on real registers instead of a
hardcoded value, you don't have that issue and your kernel is less
dependent on any changes in the bootloader.

Fair enough.  This is moot until the clk driver changes get pulled in.
This file can be changed at that time :)
