I already have patches for u-boot (using SPL). But my impression was
that linux is the master for the device trees. Esp. if there are some
problems with the board its often useful to have an in-tree device
tree.

What is the difference between this board and the other zynq boards
in the kernel?

In any case, please make this decision now: will you accept this
device tree or not?
