Except that your implementation of BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_PATCHES does not
allow the same thing as BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_CUSTOM_PATCH_DIR.
BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_PATCHES, as per your current implementation, can only
be used for remote patches: they will be downloaded from the given URL
if a full URL is given, or from $(UBOOT_SITE) if just a file name is
given.

See how things are done in linux/linux.mk for an example that allows
both remote and local patches. Though I'm not necessarily too happy to
see the linux/linux.mk being duplicated...

Thanks,

Thomas
