Have you co-ordinated with "qns3" to ensure that PPA is always going to
be available, and host binaries for Ubuntuy 16.04 (some PPAs eventually
disappear as the owner moves on to other things, or change the set of
distro releases they support at the owner's whim).

Does it make sense to rely on my copy of the repo being around all the
time? I have no intention of removing it, but when I created it I'd
assumed others would create their own clones for their own
infra-structure. I wonder if all the dependencies for U-Boot's testing
should be hosted on U-Boot infra-structure?
That all said, this should be fine; just something to ponder.

It may be useful to add the following too:
- ln -s travis-ci /tmp/uboot-test-hooks/py/`hostname`
That way, if we ever need per-board test configuration files, the path
to access them will already be available.

Does it make sense to make that 3 separate scripts? I assume that would
(a) allow the individual status of the 3 test.py invocations to be seen
separately (b) might allow/cause travis-ci to run them in parallel; I'm
not sure if this Travis config file is a sequential list of commands, or
a list of potentially parallel actions.
