FWIW I can easily handle any transformation as part of the automated
extraction into the device-tree.git. If it can expressed as a sed script
then so much the better, e.g. the current rules are
http://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=people/ianc/device-tree-rebasing.git;a=blob;f=scripts/rewrite-paths.sed;h=f7a157d1b486bac058f50e42cf7bedc8630e54ff;hb=HEAD.
If it gets too complicated for sed I can always switch to something
else.

I'm already pending a complete rebuild of the export to add in the
Documentation/devicetree/bindings sub tree but since it takes an age to
run I was waiting for the output of this conversation before kicking
that off.
