Subject: openwrt: arc - add OWRTDTB section
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This change allows OpenWRT to patch resulting kernel binary with
 | 
						|
external .dtb.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
That allows us to re-use exactky the same vmlinux on different boards
 | 
						|
given its ARC core configurations match (at least cache line sizes etc).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
""patch-dtb" searches for ASCII "OWRTDTB:" strign and copies external
 | 
						|
.dtb right after it, keeping the string in place.
