Hello!
I would like to ask, what is the difference between spl/u-boot-spl.bin
and spl/u-boot-spl-dtb.bin binaries?
Because there is board/alliedtelesis/x530/kwbimage.cfg file which
overrides global file arch/arm/mach-mvebu/kwbimage.cfg.in and the only
difference between these files is that board specific file uses
spl/u-boot-spl-dtb.bin instead of spl/u-boot-spl.bin.

The latter has a dtb appended. But I can't recall the x530
specifically needing to be different to the other platforms... sure
enough all the a385 boards the time the x530 was added used
spl/u-boot-spl-dtb.bin.

I think the real source of the discrepancy is that the addition of the
x530 board was in flight at the same time as ca1a4c863232 ("mvebu:
select boot device at SoC level"). I don't know of any reason
specifically that the x530 needs to be different. If I get a chance
I'll try it without a custom kwbimage.cfg.

I have checked that A385 Omnia board has these two files same. So seems
that both files for this board have DTB appended.

Ok. If you have a time, please check if default kwbimage.cfg works. It
could simplify build.
