[Otavio Salvador]

The 3.8 kernel has change the default directory where the dtb file is
stored. The change has been done at:

|     ARM: dt: change .dtb build rules to build in dts directory
|
|     The current rules have the .dtb files build in a different directory
|     from the .dts files. The only reason for this is that it was what
|     PowerPC has done historically. This patch changes ARM to use the generic
|     dtb rule which builds .dtb files in the same directory as the source .dts.

Indeed. I've been working around this with the reference boards during
my efforts to bump them to 3.10. I just didn't have my patch quite
ready yet .. so let's review this one!

perfect. Just what I was looking for, allowing the older style
kernels to continue to work.

The change looks fine to me.
