This can be used for device tree size reduction similar as
CONFIG_OF_SPL_REMOVE_PROPS option. For tbs2910 board this
shrinks the image size: all -2304.0 bss -16.0 text -2288.0

On further thinking, this will make it harder in the case of passing the
DTB directly to the kernel.  We should guard this option by something
else first.

More importantly, this patch breaks targets

Please do not touch cmd_shipped.

If this feature is desired,
please implement it in dts/Makefile.

Please let me ask a question about this.
In my understanding, U-Boot DTB is a different instance
from the DTB passed to the kernel.
Was it changed, or is the change planned?

For a long time now I believe we've had some platforms that wanted to be
passed, and pass on again, a single DTB.  There's also been boards that
have wanted to (or have been) passing what we have on.  We also have the
case of platforms that more constrained and so stripping information out
of the DTB for U-Boot, and continuing to load the kernel DTB from
somewhere else, is what they need and want.

Agreed, I'll make it optional in patch v2.

Thanks for testing and reporting it, I'll fix it in v2.
