ARM based SoC chips are quickly coming to industrial, automotive and
telecom markets. On those markets maintainability is important, also the
volumes are always not that great, and software engineers are a limited
resource. There will be even some chips where the peripherials are the
same in the SoC, just the core can be selected ARM vs. PPC for example and
PPC side already uses DT.
