I don't use any dtb files for the failing configurations. That wasn't
needed (and didn't work when I first set up my test system).

I'll try to find working "normal" defconfigs. When I set up my test
system, I could not get any to work for realview-eb with qemu.

Maybe I'll just need to start using devicetree files. I'll try that.
