[fedora-arm] Re: Wandboard Quad RevD1 has no Ethernet in Fedora F31?

Taking a look at the u-boot I've got (running "strings" on the dd image
from the first 20MB /dev/mmcblk) I see:

strings /tmp/mmc.dat | grep -i wand | grep -i d1
imx6qp-wandboard-revd1
_imx6qp-wandboard-revd1
_imx6qp-wandboard-revd1
imx6qp-wandboard-revd1
Board: Wandboard rev D1
...

So clearly there is some D1 detection going on in u-boot, but it's not
working for my instance of the board. :-(
