This approach does work in Linux, but the maintainers there have rejected it for producing unnecessary errors in the boot log. For U-Boot imo this approach would be acceptable.
My current understanding is that U-Boot device tree are supposed to be the same as the Linux one. They are somehow expected to get out-of-sync, but it should be always possible to just take the Linux DTS and merge those back in U-Boot.
This is what Marcel did, and it was really triggered by me sending a one line patch to fix a specific DTS issue [1]. Unfortunately once you go down the rabbit hole because of the way dts/dtsi include tree is designed he had to update lot of boards and not just the Toradex one we could test.
This is going into the opposite direction. What should we do?
