u-boot has support for a number of boards for which a dts file still needs to be written, add minimal dts files for these boards so that we can switch them over to device-model / fdt.
Can these minimal things not be submitted to mainline regardless? I mean they are factually accurate descriptions of the h/w so far as they go, so why not?
These are not tested on the actual boards, and Maxime will not take untested dts patches.

These aren't really "for u-boot only", they are still generic facts about the board, just perhaps a bit incomplete.
They lack mmc controller info for one, so no rootfs support on many boards, iow not really useful. I'm afraid that we will just have to live with these ones, and not accept any new boards unless they come with a proper dts (which has been submitted upstream).
Hopefully over time these will get a proper dts too.
