The sandpoint (as far as I know) does not have a stable DTS. So in this
case including the DTS in the kernel would reduce confusion. The same
could be said for other boards where the DTS needed to be changed for
the IRQ rework. The old DTS will no longer boot the new kernels. I'm not
sure how much longer we will run into this problem though.
