CONFIG_OF_EMBED was primarily enabled to support the agilex spl hex

file requirements.  Since this option now produces a warning during

build, and the spl hex can be created using alternate methods,

CONFIG_OF_EMBED is no longer needed.

If I apply just this patch, is the platform still bootable ?

Yes. I tested on the platform.

There is a similar patch from Dalon for Stratix10 and it still yet to be applied

to mainline:

I hope the patch from Dalon get applied to mainline before these patchsets.


In fact, this "CONFIG_OF_EMBED" produce warning during build.

Better get rid of this.


If you just remove OF_EMBED, will the DT still be correctly passed in ?

The warning is there for a reason and just removing OF_EMBED to silence

the warning isn't the right approach. But if this works on Agilex, fine.

Yes, it is fine, the u-boot binary and dtb are just cat'ed together instead.
