I observe that there's a scripts/dtc/Makefile.dtc that /isn't/ used by
scripts/dtc/Makefile. Hence, having scripts/dtc/Makefile use
scripts/dtc/libfdt/Makefile.libfdt seems slightly inconsistent. That
said, it's probably a good idea to use Makefile.libfdt, so perhaps the
answer here is to update Makefile to use Makefile.dtc sometime, rather
than not use Makefile.libfdt in this patch?

Otherwise, this patch seems to make sense.
