Hi Simon,

On x86 machines U-Boot needs to be added to a large ROM image which is then flashed onto the target board. The ROM has a particular format so it makes sense for U-Boot to build this image automatically. Unfortunately it relies on binary blobs so we cannot require this for the default build as yet.
Create a u-boot.rom output file for this purpose.

The u-boot-dtb.bin means we have to use device tree for all x86 board port. Is this a must-have?
$(srctree)/board/$(BOARDDIR)/descriptor.bin
I don't see where the descriptor.bin is created?
