+Subject: [PATCH RFC v3] MIPS: add support for vmlinux.bin appended DTB
+
+Add support for populating initial_boot_params through a dtb
+blob appended to raw vmlinux.bin.

+Changes RFC v2 -> v3
+
+* fixed !smp kernels (TODO: move it to its own patch
+
+Changes RFC v1 -> v2
+
+* changed all occurences of vmlinux to vmlinux.bin
+* clarified this applies to the raw vmlinux.bin without decompressor
+* s/initial_device_params/initial_boot_params/
+
+Initial comments by me still valid:
+
+Mostly adapted from how ARM is doing it.
+
+Sent as an RFC PATCH because I am not sure if this is the right way to
+it, and whether storing the pointer in initial_boot_params is a good
+idea, or a new variable should be introduced.
+
+The reasoning for initial_boot_params is that there is no common
+MIPS interface yet, so the next best thing was using that. This also
+has the advantage of keeping the original fw_args intact.
+
+This patch works for me on bcm63xx, where the bootloader expects
+an lzma compressed kernel, so I didn't want to double compress using
+the in-kernel compressed kernel support.
+
+Completely untested on anything except MIPS32 / big endian.

++	  With this option, the boot code will look for a device tree binary
++	  DTB) appended to raw vmlinux.bin (without decompressor).
++	  (e.g. cat vmlinux.bin <filename>.dtb > vmlinux_w_dtb).
++
++	  This is meant as a backward compatibility convenience for those
++	  systems with a bootloader that can't be upgraded to accommodate
++	  the documented boot protocol using a device tree.
++
++	  Beware that there is very little in terms of protection against
++	  this option being confused by leftover garbage in memory that might
++	  look like a DTB header after a reboot if no actual DTB is appended
++	  to vmlinux.bin.  Do not leave this option active in a production kernel
++	  if you don't intend to always append a DTB.
