So, I'm a little torn on these devicetrees that only add memory and
a UART.  It means that the presence of a DT can't be used to determine if
the platform is supported, since all you can do with it is boot a ramdisk.

Unfortunately, it seems like this is pretty much all the upstream SoC support
consists of today, so there's not much else to do. I'll pick this up for now
but in general I much prefer to have more of the SoC supported when board dts
files are added.
