uii... drop it, it stinks :D
First of all, update it to the latest version - 2021.08.0 or even next.
Then port the board code to the DEEP_PROBE.
Grep for BAREBOX_DEEP_PROBE_ENABLE. Then you will probably need
something like of_device_ensure_probed() to ensure your environment
storage is probed.
There are probably some more challenges, but this are initial steps.
