Public bug reported:

Hi all,

Apologies if this is not the proper location for reporting this bug /
feature request.  If there is a more applicable place for it, please
just let me know.

I have been doing some testing on the newly released Raspberry Pi 3
64-bit ARM preinstalled server image located here:
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/18.04/beta/

I am particularly interested in running this image on the Raspberry Pi
Compute Module 3 (the model that has 4gb of eMMC onboard, located here:
https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/compute-module-3).  However, after
flashing this Ubuntu Server image to the Compute Module 3, U-boot is
unable to locate a device tree and proceed with booting.

The serial console output is:

I can flash and boot a default Raspbian image fine on this Compute Module 3, 
so, the hardware is functional.  I made a few attempts at configuring an FDT 
address as the error indicates, but was unsuccessful.  I also copied over a 
Compute Module 3 .dtb from Raspbian and placed it the boot partition of this 
Ubuntu image, but that was also a failure.  As you can tell, U-boot is not my 
area of expertise.

It would be great if the CM3 was able to be supported out of the box,
with no additional input or configuration needed by the user (such as is
currently the case in Raspbian).

Thanks in advance for any efforts.
