Host dtc may not support the same flags as kernel's copy of dtc. Test
if dtc supports each flag when the dtc comes from host.

I think this supports only the newer external DTC,
but not older ones.

This feature is intended to test the upstream DTC
before resyncing in-kernel scripts/dtc/.

Was there ever a follow-up to this?

As Masahiro said, using an older dtc is not a usecase we care about.
