From: Dirk Brandewie <dirk.brandewie@xxxxxxxxx> This patch set adds the ability to link device tree blobs into vmlinux. Patch 1 implements the changes to include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h and adds a generic rule for generating DTB objects to be linked vmlinux. Patch 2 implements linking a DTB into an x86 image. Patch 3-4 move {powerpc,microblaze}/boot/Makefile to use the dtc rule in patch 1. This patch set has been tested on x86. Powerpc and Microblaze have been compile tested with and without patch 3 and 4 applied. Changes from V1: Documentation added for dtc command in Makefile.lib to Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt Separate DTB_ALIGNMENT define removed. FORCE removed from dtc rule. Removed hardcoded path to dts files from dtc command. Moved %.dtb: %.dts rule to arch specific makefiles. Patch for adding kernel command line option to pass in dtb_compat string dropped from this set will be submitted seperately.
