Why can't we have dts compiled into 'vmlinux' perhaps marked as __init
(or something like it). If kernel is going to patch it anyway, why do we
pass a static file from u-boot?
I guess OF based system can omit compiling the dts into 'vmlinux' or if
bootlooder passes a tree compiled in dts would be ignored/freed if present.
Best regards,
Tolunay
