I discussed this with Stephen recently. I'm okay with leaving these on
boards that have no chance of getting updated bootloaders to use the
compatible string instead. Having to use dtbTool is far worse than a
couple of extra properties IMO. I reserve the right to complain if new
stuff continues to use these though.

Just put this into the board file rather than yet another include.
