Please no. When we move dts files out of the kernel, we will still need
to copy dt-bindings into the kernel. Also, I think we should move all
dts files out of arch subdirs and arrange by vendor or soc family. I'm
sure there are some cases that structure doesn't fit well, but there is
very little in a dts tied to a cpu architecture.
