Yes, from the evb. But the even the main board of evb in rockchip
company have at lease 3 versions
as I known.
Also the evb is found by power board, main board and core board.

separate dts. If the kernel introduce the override dts, I could have a
better way to implement
it.

I would send a patch set in a few days.
