Tools like kisskb are good at finding build regressions in the kernel
sources. However, regressions in the DT desscriptions are not found,
because generally these build systems don't build the DT binary blobs.

Extend the ARM all target to build all enabled DTB files.

I've CC'd stable to see if they want to pick this up.
That's not how stable works - and you'll probably receive a standard form
whinge from them about that.  Please read up on the submission requirements
to the stable kernel trees.
It does depend on
having dtc built.  A patch already exists to build dtc on demand, but
I'm not sure if it has made it into mainline yet.  It may be in
Russell's queue.
At the moment, the only stuff I have outstanding for -rc is:

36418c5 ARM: 7499/1: mm: Fix vmalloc overlap check for !HIGHMEM
df547e0 ARM: 7503/1: mm: only flush both pmd entries for classic MMU
ae3790b ARM: 7502/1: contextidr: avoid using bfi instruction during notifier
dbece45 ARM: 7501/1: decompressor: reset ttbcr for VMSA ARMv7 cores
d968d2b ARM: 7497/1: hw_breakpoint: allow single-byte watchpoints on all addressbf88011 ARM: 7496/1: hw_breakpoint: don't rely on dfsr to show watchpoint accessa849088 ARM: Fix ioremap() of address zero

I have nothing queued for dtc building, and there's no sign of anything
new in the patch system.
