[PATCH] sbp1: Add support for IBM SBP1 board

[Patrick Rudolph]

Hi Tom,
can you please clarify or point us to some documentation that explains
the new DT setup?
I thought the u-boot DT is only used for u-boot internal drivers.

Do we need to upstream the kernel DT first?
Do we need to provide a complete "kernel DT" to u-boot as well?

Regards,
Patrick Rudolph
