simple observation -- the KERNEL_DEVICETREE variable is not
mentioned in the ref manual variable glossary.

  more weirdly, though, i've always been used to seeing it used this
way, like in the meta-yocto-bsp layer (that is, referring to the .dts
*source* files):

beagleboard.conf:KERNEL_DEVICETREE =
"${S}/arch/arm/boot/dts/omap3-beagle.dts
${S}/arch/arm/boot/dts/omap3-beagle-xm.dts"
mpc8315e-rdb.conf:KERNEL_DEVICETREE =
"${S}/arch/powerpc/boot/dts/mpc8315erdb.dts"

  but i just noticed this in the meta-fsl-asm layer:

meta-fsl-arm/conf/machine/imx23evk.conf:KERNEL_DEVICETREE = "imx23-evk.dtb"
meta-fsl-arm/conf/machine/imx6dlsabresd.conf:KERNEL_DEVICETREE = 
"imx6dl-sabresd.dtb"
meta-fsl-arm/conf/machine/imx6dlsabreauto.conf:KERNEL_DEVICETREE = 
"imx6dl-sabreauto.dtb"
meta-fsl-arm/conf/machine/imx6qsabresd.conf:KERNEL_DEVICETREE = 
"imx6q-sabresd.dtb"

where the variable contains references to the .dtb *blob* files.

  is there a standard? recommended? either way fine?
