We are going to end up with microcode both in the device tree and in
an assembler include file.

This seems unfortunate. I wonder if we can always put it in the device
tree, but then optionally also compile it into the image using a
symbol (as we do in dts/Makefile for CONFIG_OF_EMBED). This could be
done with fdtget to read the binary output of the property perhaps. I
haven't looked at it in detail though.

Maybe this is too clumsy but it would be good to have it in one
format. Or maybe we should have a tool which can generate either
format.

Regards,
Simon
