Yes, in the Chromium tree I put .dtb generation in the Makefile, since
it was planned for upstream. It was removed in this change:

https://gerrit.chromium.org/gerrit/#change,4267

So if we ignore that one, I don't think Gabe's change in this email is
necessary upstream, but we may need to consider a way to have
CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE not build a dtb. Let's see how we go.

Regards,
Simon
