In my intention was using a single U-Boot binary (u-boot-dtb.bin) with 
the three almost full compatible boards.
This is also easier for other developers, who don't need care about few 
configs and few dtb's.

And finally this code can load proper dtb for Linux Kernel for each 
supported board. So in the next part (Linux boot), things are done clean.

The common board file is quite messy because of this code, so if you 
don't like it, then I can move it to independent file.
