FWIW, tested fine here too (for the same platform).

I guess this works fine, if it makes people happy. It also allows some
weird #include paths. e.g.:

#include <arm64/include/arm/include/arm64/rockchip/rk3399.dtsi>

I guess we can call that an entertaining feature, and not a bug?

Where should this go? I'd like not to wait another few months before
sending my Gru/Kevin DTS again.
