Subject: [PATCH 2/2] MIPS: lantiq: make it possible to build in no device tree

Now it is possible to build in no device tree at all and depend on the
boot loader providing one or someone concatenating a device tree to the
end of the image.

+	  Legacy bootloaders do not pass a DTB pointer to the kernel, so
+	  if a "wrapper" is not being used, the kernel will need to include
+	  a device tree that matches the target board.
+
+	  The builtin DTB will only be used if the firmware does not supply
