I'm currently on my third attempt to clone the gta04-kernel repository, this 
time using git: rather than http: because the previous attempts ultimately 
failed with an error like this:

error: Unable to find 4001eee6c08de214f596e932c7fe454dc0f4c2f8 under

Once I have the clone, I'll take a closer look.

I'll have to read up about DT and what it means. I suppose the kernel build 
process takes care of generating the relevant payloads.
