Attached. It's just vexpress_defconfig, plus ARCH_VEXPRESS_V2P_CA5S_CA9=y
Could you try that?

The OF is an effect of the USE_OF, not the other way round, sorry about the mistake.
Of course I could go the "classic way" and make the ARCH_VEXPRESS_V2P_CA5S_CA9 dependant on the OF, but this means that the DT-powered tile would be invisible till one enables USE_OF. Any opinions?

Your suggestion fixes it -- I suggest we keep the config this way round; this means that OF gets turned on when enabling a coretile which requires it, and those coretiles are offered as choices even before OF is turned on. That feels like a sensible behaviour for the config.

While we're about this, building of the applicable dtbs is not currently enabled.

Can we add this, so that "make dtbs" works?
