Yes, thanks Karsten, the presence of these excellent docs tip me into
the "provide the DTBs" camp I think.
Aside: "EfikaMX" is listed in 2.1.2.4 as no longer supported, but we do
supply a specific image for it using the armmp kernel:
http://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/armhf/daily/netboot/efikamx/
If the docs are correct (which I think they are, git grep efika in the
kernel tree shows no DTB support) then it sounds like we should drop
that image? (Hector CCd to confirm)
