For a long time now I believe we've had some platforms that wanted to be
passed, and pass on again, a single DTB.  There's also been boards that
have wanted to (or have been) passing what we have on.  We also have the
case of platforms that more constrained and so stripping information out
of the DTB for U-Boot, and continuing to load the kernel DTB from
somewhere else, is what they need and want.
