After carefully reviewing the code from the kernel I found that
`arch/riscv/boot/dts/sifive(microchip)/Makefile` will also build the
dtb object file and finally link to the kernel. This results in
multiple dtb inside the kernel but the kernel always takes the first to
use as someone mentioned before [1]. So only applying this patch to the
mainline kernel does not work for choosing one dtb. I should also
revert the modification on commit 0ddd7eaffa64 ("riscv: Fix BUILTIN_DTB
for sifive and microchip soc") to prevent building these files and let
them be managed by `arch/riscv/boot/dts/Makefile`.

I'm also waiting for other review comments on this idea before
submitting patch v2.
