I like it, since doing so will help us hijack kernel to have dts stay
in the tree rather than going to a separate repository :)

Seriously, is maintaining dts in a separate repository still a plan?
If yes, we will have duplication problem someday anyway.

For reason of it, I vote for having dts stay in the kernel tree.
