I'm not so sure.  By grouping 

 * the DTS
 * Kconfig.auto (now just storing CPU parameters for CPUFLAGS); and
 * board-specific setup.c if required, 

we concentrate in one place, in a single subdir of
arch/microblaze/platform/*, all of the board specific info.  

Maybe our Kbuild should copy the platform .dts file out of the platform
dir and into microblaze/boot, like we do with the finished kernel?  Then
it's ready to be picked up by the user or some higher level build tool.

If users or vendors want to maintain multiple DTS files for a single
board, again they can just collect them in the platform subdir so their
intended target remains obvious.
