Hi,

when changing from Kernel 3.8 to 3.14 I discovered that UART4 was not 
working anymore. With Kernel 3.8 I was able to enable it in uEnv.txt using 
"cape_enable=capemgr.enable_partno=BB-UART4". So I checked the device tree 
configuration as described 
here http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:Capes_3.8_to_3.14 and was able to enable 
UART4 setting "dtb=am335x-boneblack-ttyO4.dtb" in uEnv.txt. Comparing 
am335x-boneblack-ttyO4.dts with am335x-boneblack.dts I can see that 
*-tty04.dts includes am335x-bone-ttyO4.dtsi instead of am335x-ttyO4.dtsi. 
My question is: What is the purpose of splitting this up into the two files 
am335x-bone-ttyO4.dtsi and am335x-ttyO4.dtsi? Why is am335x-boneblack.dts 
including am335x-ttyO4.dtsi and not am335x-bone-ttyO4.dtsi (which is 
actually commented out)? I just would like to understand the idea behind 
this structure.

Thanks and best regards

Axel
