    MIPS: Octeon: Add device tree source files. · 736b1c9c

    The two device tree files octeon_3xxx.dts and octeon_68xx.dts are
    trimmed by code in a subsequent patch to reflect the hardware actually
    present on the board.  To this end several properties that are not
    part of the declared bindings are added to aid in trimming off
    unwanted nodes.  Since the device tree and the code that trims it are
    bound into the kernel binary, these 'marker' properties never escape
    into the wild, and are purely an implementation detail of the kernel
    early boot process.  This is done for backwards compatibility with
    existing boards (identified by a board type enumeration value by their
    bootloaders).  New boards will always pass a device tree from the
    bootloader, the built-in trees are ignored in this case.
