Clean up templatized boot binaries for all K3 boards. This includes modifying the k3-binman.dtsi to use SPL_BOARD_DTB, BOARD_DESCRIPTION and UBOOT_BOARD_DESCRIPTION from the files that include it to further reuse code.
All k3-<soc>-binman.dtsi will contain only templates. Only required boot binaries can be built from the templates in the boards' respective -u-boot.dtsi file (or k3-<board>-binman.dtsi if it exists). This allows clear distinction between the SoC common stuff vs. what is additionally needed to boot up a specific board.
I appreciate the cleanup. But as far as I can see, a board might only have one device tree. How would that work if the uboot proper must support multiple device trees?
From the discussions that took place in the mailing list [1] the consensus seems to be to not focus on multiple devicetree support as it leads to confusion for downstream users.
