Thank you for your patch, which is now commit
ed9c2b28ebef3333f25cefdc2ef37ee1f05cad95.

I have an off-the-shelf Turris MOX board, which was shipped with a
U-Boot older than the commit linked below (does not contain it):
https://github.com/u-boot/u-boot/commit/bcf6971d536793eb99e12ff857cc018963d7cd46

and as such, is incapable of loading current mainline device trees,
which contain your change, because it is hardcoded to perform FDT fixups
based on paths such as:
#define ETH1_PATH	"/soc/internal-regs at d0000000/ethernet at 40000"
#define MDIO_PATH	"/soc/internal-regs at d0000000/mdio at 32004"
#define SFP_GPIO_PATH	"/soc/internal-regs at d0000000/spi at 10600/moxtet at 1/gpio at 0"

which no longer exist.

Relevant portion of boot log:

## Flattened Device Tree blob at 04f00000
   Booting using the fdt blob at 0x4f00000
   Loading Device Tree to 000000003bf16000, end 000000003bf1e11e ... OK
ERROR: board-specific fdt fixup failed: FDT_ERR_NOTFOUND
 - must RESET the board to recover.

FDT creation failed! hanging...### ERROR ### Please RESET the board ###

Note that the hint about what is wrong is only visible with a serial
console which I happen to have. The board does not rely on it for normal
operation, which could pose a problem to typical users.

Just bringing this to everyone's attention. In the meantime, I'm going
off to figure out how to build and flash a new U-Boot using the steps at
