For Tegra (and I assume the similar Exynos support), the DTB that's used
by U-Boot is considered part of the U-Boot binary, so whatever loads
that into RAM also automatically picks up the DTB, so there's no need to
do any kind of storage access to retrieve it

Of course, the U-Boot code apparently supports other methods, such as
hard-coding a memory-mapped address etc.; take a lok at the DT-related
config options.

Yes, that's working fine.
