This is a hack and is not intended to go upstream, but will be useful for Linaro's short term goals.
Linaro's development boards use SD cards, currently we have a problem where each unique SD card has a different UUID when created with linaro-media-create / linaro-android-media create. This means that no one Boot Device configuration can boot Linaro images without some manual intervention from the user. This hack will zero the signature (UUID) read from the card meaning that all SD cards will appear to be the same card.
