BTW, there's an error here too. It doesn't work right with
KBUILD_OUTPUT set and should be:

ifneq ($(wildcard $(srctree)/arch/$(SRCARCH)/boot/dts/),)
dtstree := arch/$(SRCARCH)/boot/dts
endif

The pipe means 'order-only', right? So it is just a weaker dependency
for things which are not input files as dtc is not. The 'dtc' here is
just the dtc rule below, not the actual executable. Or am I missing
something?

Ah yes, of course...

Looks like I need to leave this line to fix the above and cleaning.

Thanks for the review.
