Nah, if you go that far, better ensure the built-in device tree from
U-Boot contains a device tree that just covers everything you need. That
way you don't need to load any dtb files. The dtb loading from /boot is
really mostly there for cases where firmware is "broken" and does not
deliver good, upstream compatible device trees.

I've changed the xml to explicitly have a /boot partition in ext4.
