I'd point to 'https://www.devicetree.org/specifications/' so it's always going to show the latest. And that's the link we have elsewhere in the kernel. usage-model.rst is also something needing updating... Rob -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.

Thanks Rob, Jon, I've submitted a new patch pointing the two broken links and also usage-model.rst all to https://www.devicetree.org.specifications/.

There were two references to Documentation/devicetree/booting-without-of.rst for dtb format information. This file has been removed, so I have changed the links to Documentation/devicetree/usage-model.rst for this information, which itself points to https://elinux.org/Device_Tree_Usage for an overview of the device tree data format.
