I don't agree that all the boards have the same U-Boot binary. At
present, there are about 6 Tegra boards in mainline U-Boot all with
different binaries.
Even with DT, I don't see anything wrong with having the low-level init
code parameterized and built per board (e.g. debug UART), but all the
higher level devices initialized/configured from device tree (e.g. I2C,
MMC, USB).
Even if the binary result from the boot process is identical, but we did
something like I proposed a few emails back to inject the correct UART
ID into an initially common binary, you still get left with different
binaries per board, in terms of what you're actually flashing onto the
board.
(yes, I'd be interested in seeing the SPL code you mentioned)
