New Revision: 271057
URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/271057

Log:
  Create a /boot/dtb directory to house DTB blobs. The flattened device
  tree support includes a device tree source compiler dtc(8) which
  converts .dts files into .dtb files. /boot/loader will load dtb files
  from this directory by default, allowing for fewer differences between
  images for different SoCs. Compiled dts files will wind up here
  eventually as an alternative to embedding them into the kernel.
  Document this in hier(7), as well as add missing entries for
  /boot/firmware and /boot/zfs, though the latter two should only be
  considered place holders if someone wants to make them better.
