I believe you should enter to linux source directory posted above and 
place your dts there.
Then you should prepare patch (using git format-patch for example). This 
patch should be
placed in your meta layer into linux/linux-yocto-custom directory. At 
last, add this patch to
SRC_URI variable in form of: file://patch-name.patch into your 
linux-yocto-custom.bb recipe.
At least that's the way I would do it. Let me know if it is not clear 
enough.
