^^ u-boot,dm-spl and u-boot,dm-tpl I guess
Dropping u-boot,dm-pre-reloc is for you to decide, as you wrote the original
implementation ;-) . It will save one fdt-query but might need several
iterations as I guess new boards will add new ones after we remove the old
ones.

Do you mean moving the
+ dm_spl = fdt_getprop(blob, offset, "u-boot,dm-spl", NULL);
+ dm_tpl = fdt_getprop(blob, offset, "u-boot,dm-tpl", NULL);
into the existing #ifdef CONFIG_TPL_BUILD / SPL_BUILD blocks or something
else?
Thanks
