Hm...

Unless I did something wrong, the diff is empty!? Even the binaries do match:

iMac:master hns$ ls -l build/letux-5.0/device-trees/omap3-gta04a4.dtb 
-rw-r--r--  1 hns  staff  71513  8 Mär 21:35 build/letux-5.0/device-trees/omap3-gta04a4.dtb
iMac:master hns$ ls -l build/letux-5.1-rc1/device-trees/omap3-gta04a4.dtb 
-rw-r--r--  1 hns  staff  71513 18 Mär 20:10 build/letux-5.1-rc1/device-trees/omap3-gta04a4.dtb
iMac:master hns$ diff build/letux-5.0/device-trees/omap3-gta04a4.dtb  build/letux-5.1-rc1/device-trees/omap3-gta04a4.dtb
iMac:master hns$ 

Strange.
