Well... they may be Linux specific by default, but they're supposed to
be general enough that they (or at least, very small extensions)
*could* become official OF bindings, if there was still an OF group to
make them so.  It certainly should be possible to use these bindings
in a firmware which provides an OF client interface as well as in
flat-tree-only firmwares which don't.
