[PATCH RFC 0/2] board: visionfive2: Select fdtfile based on revision

[Jami Kettunen]

From: Jami Kettunen <jami.kettunen at protonmail.com>

Currently booting a mainline Linux kernel via extlinux with fdtdir set
doesn't load a proper DTB but passes on the U-Boot one to the kernel
which as far as I know is very incorrect and prevents user (normally
distro) provided DTB usage in a sensible/generic way.

A uEnv.txt or similar manual environment changes were not used and
should not be required to boot the board as per:
https://u-boot.readthedocs.io/en/latest/develop/distro.html

This also currently needs a kernel patch[1] for my board to have the
full 8GB of memory available to Linux instead of just 4GB it shows with
these patches alone.
