Hi Sumit!

Allow u-boot to build DTB from a different directory tree such that *-u-boot.dtsi files can be included from a common location. Currently that location is arch/$(ARCH)/dts/, so statically define that common location.
This is needed for platform owners to start building DTB files from devicetree-rebasing directory but still being able to include *-u-boot.dtsi files.

One of the issues I see with having a separate OF_UPSTREAM and U-Boot dt directory is when we have U-Boot board files that use dtsi files in the OF_UPSTREAM folder.
For example our reference boards uses the primary bootloader's dtb (eg: k3-am62a7-r5-sk.dts) which #includes the k3-am62a7-sk.dts that will be found in the OF_UPSTREAM directory and modifies it to give it the perspective of the micro-controller it will be running on during boot.
Thanks for bringing this up. I have been playing with the idea to reuse DT includes from upstream.
What do you think if we have both paths included regardless if OF_UPSTREAM is selected or not? IDK if this will break anyone else
Sure, we should be able to do that if we maintain the correct order of include paths as per following patch [1]. If this works for you let me know and I will include it for v4.
This works beautifully.
I did have to hack around to get Makefile.spl working but this is headed in the right direction for me :)
Thanks for testing. I hope I can take that as a tested-by tag for this patch.
Absolutely
