Stewart,

First property in VERSION partition may not be 'open-power' Like in witherspoon 
I see
"IBM-witherspoon-ibm-OP9-v1.21.2-2.6" as first entry. So we endup representing 
this as 'open-power' property. Are we ok with that?

Also are you sure we will never have 'open-power' property later in the VERSION 
partition ? Else we endup in duplicate property issue.

Yeah... umm... I was more interested in having a bit of backwards
compatibility here...

Although perhaps the better way is to just fix FWTS to look for what we
have in the spec for the firmware-versions dt node.
