Better to just not depend on the DTB at all for basic operation. ie. don't brick the board if the DTB is unavailable.

Is it even possible to have a "recovery mode U-Boot" that is not tied to the specific board it's built for? Either U-Boot is reliable, or it's generic (i.e. uses the DTB for configuration). I just don't see how it can be both.
