[PATCH V7 1/7] kbuild: centralize .dts->.dtb rule

From: Stephen Warren <swarren at nvidia.com>
All architectures that use cmd_dtc do so in almost the same way. Create
a central build rule to avoid duplication. The one difference is that
most current uses of dtc build $(obj)/%.dtb from $(src)/dts/%.dts rather
than building the .dtb in the same directory as the .dts file. This
difference will be eliminated arch-by-arch in future patches.
MIPS is the exception here; it already uses the exact same rule as the
new common rule, so the duplicate is removed in this patch to avoid any
conflict. arch/mips changes courtesy of Ralf Baechle.
Update Documentation/kbuild to remove the explicit call to cmd_dtc from
the example, now that the rule exists in a centralized location.

This is based on next-20121126.
I've split out this dtc rule cleanup as a separate patch series.
Hopefully it can be applied without too much controversy, then I'll move
back to discussing running cpp over *.dts.
v7:
* Build *.dtb from *.dts not src/*.dts.
* Removed all arch/ updates except MIPS.
v6: Added arch/{arm64,microblaze,mips} updates.
v5: Updated Documentation/kbuild.
v4: No change.
v3: No change.
v2: New patch.
