This patch has caused problems for some parties and people have raised questions
about the effectiveness of using a symlink to handle the transition.
Clearly more parties should be involved in the discussion: revert it for now,
i'll follow up with a v2 patchset.

Paolo Pisati (5):
  Revert "UBUNTU: [Debian] dtb: symlink /lib/firmware/(uname
    -r)/device-tree to /boot/dtb-(uname -r) to make flash-kernel happy"
  Revert "UBUNTU: [Debian] dtb: don't remove a symlink dereferencing an
    existing directory"
  Revert "UBUNTU: [Debian] dtb: don't follow symlink when checking for a
    directory"
  Revert "UBUNTU: [Debian] dtb: symlink from /boot/dtb-$(uname -r) to
    /boot/dtb"
  Revert "UBUNTU: [Debian] dtb: move dtbs installation to
    /boot/dtb-$(uname -r)"
