Could you, please, indicate according to which standard you think that the dtb should be found in directory /boot/dtb of the EFI partition.
In openSUSE we have 2 hacks:
1) Search for the DTB on the second partition always, not the active one
2) Search for the DTB in additional paths (this patch)
The reason being that we do not want to copy the DTB to the EFI boot partition, but instead just provide it in an easily accessible /boot/dtb directory on the root partition that gets updated by RPM.
Now, I personally think that this is a pretty distro specific hack. I am not sure how much more of a hack it is than searching for a DTB file at all though :).
So I'm personally not terribly opposed to pulling this in upstream. /boot/dtb is as little standardized as /dtb/ or /dtb/current/ is.
