commit 9005a51b096272e1834638f8e184706548ee7364

    Makefile: Don't build shared libfdt
    
    The submodule DTC should just build and use DTC as static (the whole
    motivation for using submod is lack of widespread distro support).
    
    The .so causes build failures on some platforms, so adjust the make
    target to just build the static lib.
