db410c doesn't ship with a bootloader that is capable of applying a dtbo
though, so this conversion mandates an updated or chainloaded bootloader
or out-of-tree kernel patch to support.

__adding__ is fine but, converting implies imposes a new requirement on
the bootchain.

Perhaps a middle road solution is to

- Add, not convert a standalone dtbo or
- Add a dtbo that includes the mezzanine dts but amends it

Option 2 for preference but, I'm not sure the dts syntax can be
meaningfully made to do that.
