I am not familiar with this board, but most likely this old U-boot
does not support dtb booting.
You can check whether "#define CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT" is included in your
board config file.

You could also try to update the bootloader or try to generate a
kernel + dtb image (need to select CONFIG_ARM_APPENDED_DTB option in
the kernel).
