Hello Tom, Simon
Unlike Linux Kernel, U-Boot historically had *.dts files under board/$(VENDOR)/dts/ and *.dtsi files under arch/$(ARCH)/dts/.
I think arch/$(ARCH)/dts dicretory is a better location to store both *.dts and *.dtsi files.
For example, before this commit, board/xilinx/dts directory had both Microblaze dts (microblaze-generic.dts) and ARM dts (zynq-*.dts), which are totally unrelated.
This commit moves *.dts to arch/$(ARCH)/dts/ directories, allowing us to describe nicely mutiple DTBs generation in the next commit.

Applied to u-boot/master, thanks!

This series was applied sooner than I had expected. Simon and I were still discussing this series.
So I am afraid Simon is really not happy about it because he was opposed to moving *.dts files from vendor directories to arch directories.
Tom also mentioned as follows:
This, I think is backwards. Xilinx has (and Freescale and others are or will be joining them) a lot of things shared between them as IP blocks get reused from non-ARM to ARM CPUs. So there's a level of DT sharing for these blocks between the CPUs.
I'd like to know Tom's option about the device tree structure. Let me confirm if my patch is doing right thing.
