The current rules have the .dtb files build in a different directory
from the .dts files. The only reason for this is that it was what
PowerPC has done historically. This patch changes ARM to use the generic
dtb rule which builds .dtb files in the same directory as the source .dts.

Do you intend for this to print out? Seems a little noisy to me for a
one-time problem. Are you trying to tell users the dtb files moved or
just prevent them from using the old ones? Quietly removing them would
still accomplish the latter.
