Zynq is ahead of the curve here, many SoCs are not doing DM in SPL yet.
With my TI hat on, the series that lets us do FIT in SPL (and thus pick
one of N DTBs for u-boot.img) is what unblocks moving over because we
can retain having 'am335x_evm' support 4+ distinct HW platforms in a
single binary.

Right, but keep in mind that u_boot_list_*_driver_* will match
u_boot_list_2_part_driver_2_dos already so we don't need to glob it in.

All of that said, I'm going to do a v3 now.  I played with the linker
list stuff like I was thinking I should anyhow and I see things like:
 *(SORT(.u_boot_list_*))
 .u_boot_list_2_cmd_1
                0x0000000040310d50        0x0 common/built-in.o
 .u_boot_list_2_cmd_3
                0x0000000040310d50        0x0 common/built-in.o
 .u_boot_list_2_i2c_1
                0x0000000040310d50        0x0 drivers/built-in.o
 .u_boot_list_2_i2c_2_omap24_0
                0x0000000040310d50       0x2c drivers/built-in.o

So when we include empty stuff into the file the linker still does the
right thing.
