Hi Guix!

On aarch64 platforms, the linux-libre-guix.tar.xz.drv build times out
[1].

This package is known to have a long build time [2].

Users can work around this by running the build locally with a (very,
very large) max-silent-time (~28800 seconds on my machine). Given the
impact of this issue (unable to build linux-libre on 64-bit Arm without
running a multi-hour build), I think it's worth revisiting if the
substitute server timeout should be increased again.

Alternatively, perhaps we could fetch the officially released
Linux-libre tarballs instead of computing them ourselves [3].

CC'ing Christopher Baines since this deals with substitutes.
