FWIW, it's quite easy to reproduce, though I don't know if it makes
sense to pollute, say, sandbox_defconfig with this to keep it from
regressing. Anyway, just add include/h2g2.dtsi containing

/ {
        config {
                question = "Life, the Universe and Everything";
                answer = <42>;
        };
};

and add "h2g2.dtsi" to CONFIG_DEVICE_TREE_INCLUDES. Or put the file in
/tmp and add the absolute path "/tmp/h2g2.dtsi" to
CONFIG_DEVICE_TREE_INCLUDES.

I know we're close to release date, but I'd really appreciate if this
could make it into 2024.10. Yes, it's my fault for not noticing and
reporting sooner; the timing just happened to mean I had several
customers end up using 2023.10 (making use of
CONFIG_DEVICE_TREE_INCLUDES), the breakage happened in 2024.01, and I
hadn't had occasion to use this with newer u-boots since, until just
recently.
