This is a leftover from v1 which had a file there, but we merged the v2. See

For now we don't have U-Boot-specific additions to the upstream DTS for the
NanoPi R76S but we could in the future, so having a wildcard like that would
allow Jonas to be notified if one ever gets added. So it's not completely
useless. No strong opinion on still deleting it or not.
File is there or not. If you add it in future you should extend that fragment
and that's it.
And Jonas won't be Cc'ed on it being added if someone forgets to update
MAINTAINERS (which honestly is very likely), that's my point. He maintains the
board but won't be notified if something directly related to the board he
maintains gets added.
you can use N: regex fragment for it.
Thanks,
Michal
