I'm seeing failures/regression in this cycle (both RC1 and RC2)
building a lot of the boards, I suspect this is a difference between
using upstream (with python support patches) dtc vs the in-tree one.
We use the upstream one to ensure we get consistency across all dtc
consumers so it would be nice to have the same functionality as prior
releases.
