[PATCH v4 05/11] dts: Add alternative location for upstream DTB builds

Allow platform owners to mirror devicetree files from devitree-rebasing
directory into dts/upstream/src/$(ARCH) (special case for arm64). Then
build then along with any *-u-boot.dtsi file present in arch/$(ARCH)/dts
directory. Also add a new Makefile for arm64.
This will help easy migration for platforms which currently are compliant
with upstream Linux kernel devicetree files.

Changes in v4:
- Switched subtree to be imported as dts/upstream sub-directory rather
than devicetree-rebasing sub-directory to better suite U-Boot
directory structure.
- Added a note to OF_UPSTREAM Kconfig option.
Changes in v3:
- Minor commit message update
Changes in v2:
- s/DEVICE_TREE_LOC/dt_dir/ and s/U-boot/U-Boot/

+ help
+ Traditionally, U-Boot platforms used to have their custom devicetree
+ files or copy devicetree files from Linux kernel which are hard to
+ maintain and can usually get out-of-sync from Linux kernel. This
+ option enables platforms to migrate to devicetree-rebasing repo where
+ a regular sync will be maintained every major Linux kernel release
+ cycle. However, platforms can still have some custom u-boot specific
+ bits maintained as part of *-u-boot.dtsi files.
+
+ Note: This option should be set in Kconfig, for the SoC as a whole.
+ However, newer boards whose devicetree source files haven't landed in
+ the dts/upstream subtree, they can override this option to have the
+ DT build from existing U-Boot tree location instead.
