I don't think I fully understand what you're trying to do here. If ATF 
loads U-Boot as well as the DT, ATF can pass the DT to U-Boot which then 
ends up as $fdtaddr. If you enable CONFIG_OF_BOARD, it even becomes the 
input DT for U-Boot.

Hiding the fdtfile variable name doesn't sound like it solves anything 
to me?
