Configuration which is shared between the BeagleBone Black and derivative boards like the Sancloud BeagleBone Enhanced (BBE) is moved to a common dtsi file to prevent duplication.
Are these being sent upstream to the linux kernel?
The upstream kernel already has am335x-boneblack-common.dtsi and am335x-sancloud-bbe.dts files, since 2016 and 2018 respectively. As these files fell out of sync over 4 years ago I've assumed there is no need to keep them in sync. We could try to resync things but that would lead to an unnecessary risk of breakage, I don't have every BeagleBone Black derivative board on hand to fully test such a resync.
