u-boot has a specific job and is compiled for a specific board. There is no need for multi board booting.
For now at least, it'd be real neat to have one u-boot build for generic rz/a1 , concatenate DT to it and be done with a board port.
I think there is always going to be 'low level weird stuff' specific for each board, so you'll never be able to do it all with a DT (for an actual product that is).
Even in our Linux BSP, I still always have a board-xxx.c file for anything not easily handled in DT.
I wonder if we really cannot get to the point where we can have a universal build, add DT to it and be done with a board port. That'd be real cool and it'd make things easy for people using the chip ... :)
