i see two requirements here:

1) create a symlink in a fixed location (e.g. /boot/dtb) that points to the
latest dtbs installment (much like /vmlinuz points to the kernel)

2) move dtbs to a filesystem that u-boot can handle (extX or vfat so far)

to make this effective we need to achieve both (there's little point in
creating /boot/dtb -> /lib/firmware/etcetc if /lib is an xfs/btrfs filesystem)

so, IMO, the symlink position is what the cross-distro ml should pick, while we 
as
a distribution, should move the dtbs to a place that u-boot can always access

any thoughts on this?
