The typical solution for nonstandard bootloaders is to have a boot wrapper like the one from https://github.com/zonque/pxa-impedance-matcher that translates whatever information we have at the bootloader level into DT properties. As I understand, the reason we are not doing that here is that we also have proprietary user space that we can't fix to look in a different place, i.e. the interface is between the bootloader and some user binary, not bootloader to kernel.
