Can you explain why this is necessary? I don't see any code
of that file being called from the newly added code for the
case where CONFIG_ARM_ATAG_DTB_COMPAT is disabled.

I put function get_fdt_prop() in atags_to_fdt.c but what I basically needed
was the inclusion of $(libfdt_objs). I agree this can be achieved out of
CONFIG_ARM_ATAG_DTB_COMPAT's stuff and I'll do if the patchest is allowed
to mature.

I guess a better place could be libfdt itself but feel free to suggest a
better one.

Thanks,
Domenico
