I maintain a U-Boot port for some custom ASICs (Intel Axxia network processors). I've been basing this on v2015.10 for some time. I just rebased to the latest (v2016.07-67-gb8e5997), and though I can get to the U-Boot prompt, Linux no longer boots. As U-Boot seems to require a device tree now, I copied the one I use for Linux (port of Linux 4.1 for the same chips). I use a .fit image containing Linux and a device tree. Here's what happens.

How do I specify the "Fdt for comparison"? The device tree I added to the U-Boot build has the same compatible string as the fdt in the image I'm trying to boot?
