I generally use allmodconfig which enables building all DTs.

Yes, there's a dependency on CONFIG_DTC which isn't always enabled
with CONFIG_OF. Maybe it should be. The only other solutions I've
thought of are either always build dtc or make the targets conditional
on CONFIG_DTC. The latter would only change the error message.
