We regenerate this for every dtb?

Use LINUX_COMPILE_BY #define

I'd use UTS_RELEASE and UTS_VERSION defines here.

Obviously, hardcoding this is not right. You probably need to prepend 
with $(obj) so this works for out of tree builds too.

You could commit the .dtsi file using the above defines and then just 
add a #include of it here. Then we'd get dependency tracking for free.
