Yes, correct. We don't want to add the DCD file for a single defconfig.

Once we add the DCD file in U-Boot then we need to maintain it forever.

Also, if someone wants to use Optee with the 1GB variant another DCD
file will be needed.

This simply does not scale.

pico-mx7d is capable of booting via SPL just fine. It boots 512MB and
1GB versions of the board, so we really don't need DCD for your
specific defconfig.

Again, just use SPL for your usecase.
