Yep, my point.

I don't really have a problem with keeping known working dts files in
arch/powerpc/boot/dts.  Perhaps a 1-1 match with files in
arch/powerpc/configs?

It would still be nice to have the dtc source, attach tool source, and,
if useful, a more exhaustive collection of dts files in one place.
