U-Boot wrapped dtbImage; useful for testing DT with an unmodified U-Boot.

This patch is based on:
git://kernel.ubuntu.com/jk/dt/linux-2.6.git dtbimage
However, I actually developed and tested it only on:
git://git.secretlab.ca/git/linux-2.6 devicetree/test
plus the following commits from jk's dtbimage branch:
4c2eddb89542f73fe626813e3cdafc789f931aec arm: dtbImage support
4cb80ac96489220554d28f6fde527aeef83e628b arm/dtbimage: copy dtb blob to offset from image base
I wonder if rather than simply applying my patch below to jk's dtbimage branch, perhaps it would be better to cherry-pick the two commits I mentioned above into the devicetree/test tree, after which I can submit the original change I wrote there?
Speaking of having dtb embedded in zImage, I bet the following patch from John Bonesio gets the better chance to hit the mainline.
