Neither the name $global.of_machine_compatible nor the description
"Extra OF board compatible" suggest that this will fixup kernel DTs instead
of rewriting barebox' own machine compatible, which is what springs to
my mind when seeing this variable. I am fine if you only implement
what you need, but that name is unsuitable for your use case IMO.
