Proprietary, signed and closed bootloader NOLO does not support DT. So
for booting you need to append DTS file to kernel image.

U-Boot is optional and can be used as intermediate bootloader between
NOLO and kernel. But still it has problems with reading from nand, so
cannot read NVS data nor MAC address.

You could use kexec to pass the fixed DT.

Yeah. You could also strap desktop PC to a USB GPRS card, and call it
phone. You could also make a pig fly.

But because you could does not mean you should. No, sorry, kexec is
not acceptable. Too hard to set up, slows boot too much.
