I forget why I cloned the repo, but I have one with a similar name
hanging around my computer
git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/devicetree/devicetree-rebasing.git
Also I think the same file as u-boot is the right place for it.

as long as you're deleting 'configure you could replace configure with
the substitute.

I think this is the right approach, with a general u-boot that each
board can inherit and make work for them.

we could probably add a snippet here and remove most of the
architectures, but at 11MB its probably not worth it.

with dd being so potentially destructive I think we should have the
users run the dd command themselves, or it could be included as part of
a `guix system init --target=arm-board=/dev/sdX arm-config.scm'
