For my case the hardware vendor makes the u-boot not me. Since I now
know about FIT images my one FIT image will support many vendors.
Any one vendor won't be too keen to put other vendors' dtb's on their
board by default. Also there's no way they could know a priori what
other vendors my software would support.
Putting a bunch of dtb's in a file is great for me.
