Hmm. It'd be nice for the filenames to be ${soc}-${board} so that e.g.
U-Boot can easily calculate the DTB filename based on its soc/board
environment variables... Luckily in my case for Tegra, all the Tegra
chip names start with "Tegra", so we already sort all our DTB filenames
together in the directory listing:-)
