  To: u-boot

When booting using U-boot -> systemd-boot (EFI payload) -> kernel on
RK3399, systemd-boot by some bug can't execute its "devicetree" key
correctly to load its proper dtb from files.

In that case, it will use fallback dtb from U-boot, which can be
out-of-date, and on RK3399, even the latest U-boot contains out-of-date
dtb which can cause problems like invalid opp tables.

And for systemd-boot, it doesn't provide any board specific dtb, but
completely relies on the EFI environment provided by U-boot, thus if we
can't find a good dtb, the fallback one will be used anyway.

So this patch will workaround the problem by appending common linux dtbs
directory to the existing "efi_dtb_prefixes" so that for systemd-boot it
can use the existing fdt and boot properly.
