NOPs within the property section are skipped, but NOPs between
OF_DT_END_NODE and OF_DT_BEGIN_NODE were not. My firmware NOPs out
entire nodes depending on various environment parameters.

of_scan_flat_dt already handles NOP more generally..

Good catch, though that code has now moved over to drivers/of
and is a bit different. Grant is going to fix it up though.

Cheers,
Ben.

Ah, I based the patch off 2.6.33.. 

Grant: let me know if you need some help/testing, nice to run into you
again.

Would be nice if you could respin and test your patch against 2.6.34-rc1.  :-)

Otherwise I'll look at it tomorrow.
