+Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: zboot: put appended dtb into a section
+
+This will make a separated section for dtb appear in ELF, and we can
+then use objcopy to patch a dtb into vmlinuz when RAW_APPENDED_DTB
+is set in kernel config.
+
+command to patch a dtb:
+objcopy --set-section-flags=.appended_dtb=alloc,contents \
+ --update-section=.appended_dtb=<target>.dtb vmlinuz vmlinuz-dtb
