[bug#68023,00/13] Add support for Linux `make dtbs_check`

  Hello,

This adds support for `make dtbs_check` in a Linux checkout from within a
`guix shell -D linux-libre` environment.

This allows to check device trees against the JSON schema that is made up from
the Linux dt-bindings documentation.

This requires an update of python-jsonschema, which in turn requires
python-attrs > 22.2.0. On master, we only have python-attrs == 21.2.0. That
means that patches 0008 to 0013 are targeting the python-team branch.

Thanks,

Mathieu

Patches 3-8 look good to me with the few comments I made. They can go
straight to master, no need for a stop-over in the rust-team branch.

I took you remarks into account and applied patches 3-8. Thanks for
having a look!

Overall, I think that if it's working for you, great. Especially since
Efraim approved the Rust stuff.

However, I prefer not to make the kernel depend on python. I know that
basically any system will include python but still I prefer to avoid the
direct dependency.

The goal of this patch series is to improve a development workflow,
right?

How about doing `guix shell python-dtschema -D linux-libre`? Will that
work?

Right.

Sure, in fact I am currently using the following command line:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
guix shell python python-ply python-gitpython python-dtschema -D linux-libre
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I guess that the list can (will) go longer, so what would you think of
creating a linux-python-build-tools package that would be independent of
linux-libre?

For now, I will just drop the last patch.

Thanks,

Mathieu

If that works for you, I'm all for it!
  

Hello,

Alright, so everything except python patches is merged. Python team,
would it be OK to push the rest to the `python-team` branch?

Thanks,

Mathieu
