In the mean time, we merged the ARC HS Development Kit development kit,
and the rename of the u-boot environment image is done directly by
genimage:

+image boot.vfat {
+  vfat {
+    files = {
+      "uImage"
+    }
+    file uboot.env {
+      image = "uboot-env.bin"
+    }
+  }
+  size = 100M
+}

This makes this patch no longer useful, so I've marked it as Rejected
in our patch tracking system. Let me know if you disagree for some
reason. Thanks!

Best regards,

Thomas
