I wanted to limit my patch to affect as minimum sections as possible.
so I added the field to the <bootloader> record. 

I'm agree with your proposal, since the removal of FDTDIR is more of a
configuration for an existing bootloader.

I moved this option to the <bootloader-configuration> and submit a new
patch. it would be great to have your feedback whenever you had time.

Reza
