I believe it is not possible to do that
because https://www.iana.org/assignments/enterprise-numbers.txt is not a
"versioned" URL, and that file is regularly updated, so this hash will
become broken at some point in the future, causing breakage.

So basically, we need one of the two following options:

(Best)      Find a URL for enterprise-numbers.txt that is versioned, so
            that we know what we fetch is stable

(Less Best) Add something like BR_REALLY_NO_CHECK_HASH_FOR that
            continues to disable the hash check even when
            BR2_DOWNLOAD_FORCE_CHECK_HASHES is enabled

Best regards,

Thomas
