How do we make sure the FSBL matches the dts/dtb we are using? As far as I
can tell, it is built based on the bitstream file given, and I just hoped
(right now) that the evaluation board's bitstream file provided by Vivado
SDK matched the DTS file provided by meta-xilinx [this might be the case].
In the future, not sure how to do this if I'm given just the DTS/DTB.

This may be because it's upside-down a bit. It's been very confusing trying
to figure out what is 1/0 for the switches.

How do we create the boot.bin with ATF (ARM trusted firmware)? How do you
know it's because we do not have ATF loaded?

Thanks,
