I am pretty sure that this issue is caused by the Marvell U-Boot which
tries to modify the dts on the fly. But the device tree reference of
this U-boot is not the one we use in mainline, so at end it mess up the
dtb!

There is an option to ask Marvell bootloader to not modify the dts, I
think it is something like ftd_skip.
