So if any ARM SoC gets device-tree enabled by a backport it might potentially need a change to flash-kernel, if the "Hardware" string does not match up with what the model file delivers. Bdale argues that the device-tree changes could potentially incur other changes so an update of flash-kernel makes sense instead of the fallback solution. @debian-boot: Is it ok to unblock flash-kernel at this point or should that be done post-beta1?
