Sure, good catch. I'd go even further saying that we can rename (or merge if
the destination file already exists) as:
bcm2712-rpi-5-b.dts -> bcm2712-rpi-5-b-norp1.dts (or some better suffix other than -norp1)
bcm2712-rpi-5-b-monolithic.dts -> bcm2712-rpi-5-b.dts
so the monolithic one, which seems to be the 'safest' option as of now,
would be the default dtb. Do you think it could be ok?

Sure.
