Hello Simon,
some boards like qemu-riscv64_defconfig do not use any device-tree at build time. A device-tree is only supplied at runtime by the prior boot stage (CONFIG_OF_PRIOR_STAGE=y).
In doc/develop/devicetree/intro.rst you suggest to put binary blobs into the device-tree.
Could you, please, update the documentation to explain how adding blobs to the device-tree works in the different scenarios depending on the values of:
CONFIG_OF_EMBED CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE CONFIG_OF_BOARD CONFIG_OF_HOSTFILE CONFIG_OF_PRIOR_STAGE
It would be especially important to understand how one can develop a board independent feature which works for all of these settings.
Please, describe CONFIG_OF_PRIOR_STAGE in doc/develop/devicetree/control.rst.

I have now sent documentation on this, as requested.
Please can you stop waiting, and apply the revert series that I requested 6 weeks ago now? If this mess goes out in a release I will be extremely unhappy.
Regards, Simon
