I have a CuBox, and based on USB id for the UART, it's an ES model.

Since the only thing that breaks seems to be SD, I can personally live with
that just fine even if I have to refer to the non-ES dtb for backwards
compatibility.

If this requires more discussion then the obvious solution is to leave out
these patches and send the superceding DT pull request of a branch that doesn't
have them. I think we can take this as it is for now though -- I suspect in
reality the number of affected ES owners should be pretty small?
