Will check booting an unmatched board; I need to do the same test to
upgrade u-boot in Debian anyways.

The main outstanding issue is that u-boot-documentation still fails to
build.

In order to get u-boot-documentation to build, I had to add
python-sphinx-prompt, and in order to get python-sphinx-prompt to build,
I needed to disable tests. Can someone from the python team take a look
at python-sphinx-prompt?

python-sphinx-rtd-theme is an optional dependency for the documentation,
but it does build without it. I am not sure how much nicer it is with or
without it. Any opinions on enabling that or using the default theme?


Applying this patch on top of v2 gets everything building for me, though
obviously disabling tests for python-sphinx-prompt is not ideal:
