By doing this then older kernel won't be able to do recovery, while if
you keep it, the new kernels will still use new way to support recovery
thanks to the new reg filed added and old kernels will continue to work.

However, what we try to maintain is running new kernel on old dtb not
the opposite which is just a nice to have. At the end it is up to you,
if you really want to remove this chunk I will apply it once the driver
part of the series will be accepted.
