Setting aside that as I said you don't have to use DM in SPL, maybe it's also worth noting you don't have to provide "describes the whole board" DTB files. If as far as SPL is concerned there's no difference between board A, B and C, just make a DTS that describes the relevant hardware. Also, platdata can help here too. -- Tom
