Oh ok, so the prefuncs/postfuncs can have their own [cleandirs], that's
interesting.
How about the following (trying to find a good way to explain it):
-----
When inherited by the u-boot recipe (UBOOT_PN), uboot-sign.bbclass adds
a concat_dtb step, which places additional files into ${DEPLOYDIR}
before do_deploy.
The use of prefuncs for this prevents us from adding
do_deploy[cleandirs] = "${DEPLOYDIR}"
because that would remove the files produced by the prefunc.
(Each of prefuncs/task/postfuncs functions has their own cleandirs, and
each function's cleandirs are removed at the start of that function.)
Thus, it seems good to make concat_dtb a part of do_deploy, such that it
runs after removal of do_deploy's cleandirs. As before, care is taken to
not interfere with the kernel's do_deploy definition, since concat_dtb
was only needed for u-boot.
